Imperfectly Me
© N Noël July 2009


Perfect that’s not me my teeth are a bit crooked but I smile wide like the open sea
Pretty nope still not me some say cute maybe but not my cup of tea
Laughs too hard, talks too much some just want you to SHUT UP
Play your part don’t “act” smart make others comfortable
Guess what, you’re out of luck
I can only be me, Imperfectly Me

Me through the good and not so fine just keeping it moving towing the line
Staying focused when it gets tough life’s to short to ever give up
My opinion may not be yours we all have differences consider the source
Won’t live in a shadow as time passes by win or lose at least I tried
No ones’ perfect that’s certainly not me I am who I am Imperfectly Free

Shinny, bright and the glitter oh what a sight
Short skirts, little tops, push up bra letting it all hang out
Won’t take NO when I hear it the first time
Pushing the envelope when others except finite
That’s me Imperfectly Me, Imperfectly Free

Know my own worth learned hard lessons from being hurt
Makes mistakes, knows my Faith, love myself enough not to indulge in self-hate
Imperfect that’s me I make no apologies for the person you see
Take it or leave it the choice is yours
The ride is worth it I know how to love and play hard

Yes Imperfectly Me, Imperfectly Free
A Blessing from above He created us all differently
The person I see I love more each day
So don’t hold your breath I’m not going away
Yes Imperfect, Imperfectly Me
I’m o.k. with me ask yourself the question
Have you set yourself FREE
