“I’M FLAWED”

I’m flawed

Though I was was never meant to be

Anywhere near perfect that’s not me

I’m flawed

With faded scars that still run deep

Who’s company are mine to keep

I’m flawed

And I do not care what people say

Because it makes me who I am today

I’m flawed

But that will never be an excuse

For any poor behaviour or abuse

I’m flawed

It is something that I clearly see

And I cannot ever be totally free

Yes, I’m flawed

That I know and I completely own

Though it’s clear that I am not alone

I’m flawed

And it’s probable you are too

So I’ll try and see the best of you

I’m flawed

It’s okay, I’ll learn and I’ll grow

But perfection I will never know

I’m flawed

I’m vulnerable but if you help me

I can be the best that I can be
