Imperfect Me



Switched off the TV,
Shut down my phone.
Sat on the sofa.
Just wanted to be alone.

Emptied my mind of
What happened to me these past few days .
Stopped planning,
The things I want to do to fly away.

Opened the windows,
Soaked up the sun.
Looked at the mirror to find my faults.
Found surprisingly that there were none.

Looked at the perfectly imperfect me.
Thought about all the lessons,care and love
Showered by family, friends and strangers.
Remembered those were my strength,my treasure trove.

Winced at the thought of
How I shunned
"You are nice and beautiful!"
Now I agree.
And by me I am equally stunned.
