Flaws

poem by: Martyn Grindrod
Written on Jan 08, 2017

I dig your imperfections

The parts of you which you despise 

Your 'freckles'
Which you loathe 
To me are individual beauty spots 

You 'dimple' when you smile 
like you've been hit by a dart 
but to my minds eye it's what sets you apart

Your collar and cuffs 
may be a different hew 
but my thoughts are 
there could never be another you 

You see my pearl in the Shell 
it's not what you see in your mirror
that matters 
it's what's in the eye of the beholder 

and to me you are everything 

thank you
