Kristen Wilson Poet Lyric

It's Okay

It's okay
     if I'm not skinny enough for you to see my ribs.
It's okay
     if I can't sing with a perfect pitch 100% of the time.
It's okay
     if I can't be perfect all the time.
It's okay
     if i don't look like a porcelain doll.
It's okay
     if I spend my nights crying myself to sleep.
It's okay
     if I roam from place to place, looking for where I belong.
It's okay
     if I don't say I love you right away.
It's okay
     if I break things off for my own good.
It's okay
     if I cry and wish I could take it all back.
It's okay
     if I don't hear from you for months, or even years.
It's okay
     if my inbox stays empty because you can't realize this.
And it's okay
     that it's taken me this long to realize
               you're not the one for me.
