In every person there are flaws
Some seen, some hidden in the dark
Like spiders or mice or the monster under your bed
Some are shown outright
Like paint on your jeans and hands
Like fireworks in the sky
Some peoples flaws are not always seen as flaws
They may wear a lot of makeup or talk too loud
But to them it's normal and there's nothing wrong
But then there are the dangerous flaws
The murderer, the robber, the kidnapper
And you always wonder
What will I do next?

Do you think love is ignoring or embracing a person's flaws?
