Your perfect imperfections are the things you hate most; you want to be perfect.
Only you can be you, because you’re unique.
Uniqueness isn’t something to be changed without thinking first.
Remember who you were before these changes?


People might not like who you were before you changed.
Everyone judged you, but not me.
Remember how I stood up for you that day?
Friends can’t always be trusted, and you found that out the hard way.
Everybody laughed at you as you got bullied and got broken down.
Change isn’t always the best option, especially when it comes down to who you are.
Think about who you want to be and don’t listen to what others want you to be.


If anyone could help you, would you let them?
Maybe if you heard me out, I could help you.
People shouldn’t be able to hurt your very soul, but they did.
Everyone should take back what they said and did.
Remember what you said to me a year ago?
“Forget what they all say.
Everything they say is a load of bullsh*t; you’re perfect as you are, and you don’t need to change a thing.
Change is for those who accept what everyone else says as the truth and don’t even know themselves.”
That day, you helped me see who I really was.
In time, I may be able to help you change back, if only you’d listen to me.
Only you can change back to yourself.
No one else can do it for you because you’re the only one who can be you.
Sometimes, you need to embrace your perfect imperfections.
