i accept you
for all your imperfections
in my eyes you are perfection
the seen and unseen
if only you had my eyes
placed them in those
big brown pupils
then you would see
what i see
forget what others see
i do not care
about pink pimples,
blemishes, stretch marks,
nor the love handles
you are a unique fragrance
invisible to those
who choose what they see
but i see beyond your image
so you're visible to me
i know
your heart is not red,
it's burgundy -
but so is everybody's
and
we all beat the same
sometimes slowly
but mine beats rapidly
when you glance at me
i accept you for all your scars
for they are a part of me
as mine are to you
together our wounds heal
