Beauty Inside

Your beauty deep inside Behind those bedroom eyes Most men will fail to find With you only as a prize I can see it clear as day Shining from your soul Hiding from the prey It truly makes you whole So wipe away your tears Set your beauty free Leave behind your fears Come walk away with me

You write of 'true beauty' magnificently Tim:) The last stanza is so lovely with a peaceful feeling that everything will be alright. That 'aaah' sense after one has released a deep breath. Fabulous writing:)

Hi Tim, the one line in this piece that I query, "Hiding from the prey", her beauty is hiding from the hunted animal? Hiding from a human victim? Thanks, Robert

I had the same thought. I think if we use it as a verb, as in hiding from "the act of preying, or plundering" it works, but it's unclear how that might make one whole. In any case, I tend to agree that it's ambiguous, and probably could be reworked to clarify the meaning.

Ahh...the value placed on mere surface appearance...INFLATION DRIVES THE NATION, not just in the economy but embedded deeply into the aesthetic culture, too ! A gentle heart is priceless. With a face to match it is a ticket into heaven.

Yes some men get lost in a woman's appearance ..They get lost in ribbons and wrapping ,forgetting the gift..That's the beauty inside.This poem is marvelous,it takes a great man to be able to appreciate and understand what a woman really wants.You achieved that goal.The ending of the poems is like a splash of comfort on a saddened soul..Awesome!!
