I detected a wrinkle…
All fine lines gone…
I saw a bump…
A pimple now shown.

But I love me regardless
Of the color of my eyes.
Say you love me…
Even with my ugly cries.

I just cut my hair.
And it really ***** nappy.
I had a bad day at work…
And at home I’m feeling sappy.

Will you comb my hair?
Even if it’s hard to come through
Will you cheer me up?
Take away my color blue.

I’m not perfect…
Not looking for imperfection…
Only just to love you…
And surely some affection.

You know…I’m getting fat.
And I have to buy a whole new size.
I don’t feel like cooking tonight.
I hope you’re not wondering why?

I got a callous on my foot today…
From wearing those heels…
Would you sand it away…
It's starting to peel.

I love you unconditionally
As if I loved my self.
I love you regardless of your imperfection…
For I love no one else.

You know…I sometimes snore
In my sleep,
And have a tendency to wine.
And even though I may look bad in the morning
Will you still tell me I’m fine.

My perfection lies in the love…
That I have for you…
That we share together through and through
And regardless of my imperfection…
Regardless of your imperfection…
As we grow and love each other
With so much affection.
The love we share is to the highest perfection
That anyone could ever know!!!
