Your Mother

The second toe of my left foot, can curve in out of the ordinary. I have a birth mark on my inner thigh, I know it's not extraordinary. My ears are long and elfish, I got those from my father. My feet are not far from small, those came from my grandmother. And the baby teeth, I'm not quite sure. Their origin is unknown. But without a doubt, the fairness of my skin, is deffinatley my mother's tone. And the paleness of my eyes, pigments blue but oh so light. Were born for you my darlings... for my love was just too bright.
