Not Perfect

Let's sketch our flaws out. Paint them on our faces for the world's eyes and feel no shame; like the first make-up art of a little girl. Let's surrender to our imperfections. Throw out our dirty linen on the busiest alley Take a stroll over them; To red carpet our imperfect pictures in the world's gallery. Let's scream out our fears. Shout them out in reach of the mountain peaks; Believing courage stays that high beyond our reach. Come on babe, who said we have to be perfect?
