Imperfectly Perfect

the disarray of your atmosphere 
deep in subtle mess
yet your smile 
ca,ms like the sea
how imperfectly perfect

brooding in your thoughts of pain
carved their names in your heart
your gift from HIM you hide
isolating yourself from hurting eyes
yet your star a symbol of hope
how imperfectly perfect

rough on diverged roads
scared of the wrong choice
yet a smile you keep on board
deceptive they say, but smart i believe
how imperfectly perfect

disturbed is your heart 
yet happy for your mate
unknown to them
soulful is your act
so imperfectly perfect
