Flaws

I think the hardest story to write is your own.

Because you see, in books by the final page; the boy gets the girl, the flaws are made perfect and the world is made right once more.

We can't just be rid of our flaws by a quick use of an eraser.

The girl doesn't always get the boy in a wonderful sunset ending.

The world isn't always restored to perfect harmony by the time the book has come to a close.

You see, you are not perfect like a book.

You are not as beautiful as well-written love story.

You my dear, are a beautifully, shattered human being.

You are more beautiful then the most perfect rose even the greatest wordsmith could only dream to begin to describe.

You are so much more beautiful then a book.

You are human.

You have infinity written in your skin.

You have ink as blood.

You have an ocean inside of you that the world cannot contain.

You are shattered, but still do not break.

You are so fierce, that others are blinded by it.

You are a human.

And a beautiful one at that.

So, do not leave it to a poet who does not know you, to write your story.

Take up the pen.

Take up the page.

Imprison your memories in the chapters you so tenderly write.

Let the paper soak up your tears.

Let the binding of this book, press your shattered pieces back to where they belong.

So be on your way, my brave wanderer, gather your tools, you've a world to unleash.

So, Write your words and set them free.
