Imperfections
I am an imperfect person.
I will never be a perfect person.
So love me as I am, or let me walk away.
I overthink everything,
I analyze everything,
I cry over stupid things,
I let people walk all over me,
I get defensive,
I don’t trust easily.
I am like this because
I have been hurt,
By so many people
Around me.
People I once trusted.
Once I get close to people,
I am so scared I am going
To lose them.
Like I have lost so many others.
This world is full of imperfections,
I am one of those imperfections.
So love me as I am, or let me walk away.
