Flawed

People look at me different now because of what I write
Seeing my flaws on paper, telling me I shouldn’t do it
They don’t understand, this writing is therapeutic
That’s the problem, people scared for me simply for being me
Still worried that those others are hesitant of accepting me
Accepting me? There isn’t an exclusive group I’m trying to be a part of
Not ashamed to show what my heart’s made out of
Maybe those same people looking out for me wish they could express
Express and show what they go through so everyone can see what makes them tick
Hiding behind the fact that their skin isn’t as thick
We become too consumed with concealing our inner demons
Without them we would have never gotten as far
You can’t go around saying people should accept you for you
When you’re the one not showing who you really are
It’s ironic that some people want to be accepted when they can’t accept themselves
Too busy being worried about others except themselves

Embrace your flaws; it's a part of your makeup
Once you bring those to light and are comfortable being you
There’s absolutely no limit to what you’ll be able to do.
