I fell in love with a guy

I fell in love with a guy
who has palpable marks on his face
Yet, he is unfazed to flaunt such a facade
For it does not define his real beauty.

I fell in love with a guy
whose legs are not those of NBA stars
Yet, he’ll walk with grace and stateliness ㅡ
strides that transcend myriads of footsteps.

I fell in love with a guy
who gives no fvck about his physical size
Let alone his teeth with spaces,
He still paints a smile that goes beyond horizons.

I fell in love with a guy
who embraces his imperfections
because he knows his worth
and no standard could ever top that.

I fell in love with a guy
who looks at the mirror
and sees nothing but purity ㅡ
that guy is me.
