Analysis of Not Perfect
Dorothy J Garcia 1976 (Clark AFB)
I'm not perfect
I don't have a beautiful face
I don't have a beautiful body
I'm sure the hell not skinny or curvy
I do not have that perfect skin
I do have a huge heart
I have a giving soul
I have an old soul
I might be old fashion
But I am for real
I'm Loyal
I'm Blunt
I'm really friendly
I can lose my temper fast
But only if you tend to cross me!
