Not Perfect

your hair's a little messy, your lips, slightly chapped. i can tell you wore the same shirt yesterday, but i don't mind at all. bags have formed under your eyes from lack of sleep. your shoes, muddy after a run in the rain. but, if anything, there's one thing you should know. i like you just the way you are, even if you're not perfect.
