Beauty Within - Kintsukuroi Contest

She had the face of an angel Till that dreadful day When a drunken motorist Nearly took her life away Her face was mangled By the tyres and the stone Nothing like the beauty That she had once become The plastic surgeon Had magic in his soul Just like a jigsaw Put together to make whole All healed up now Face is looking fine Battling with her nightmares Visual scars are a thin line Now a better person Understanding others plights People see her from the inside Not a beauty without sight Kintsukuroi is a word for her Face enhanced not with gold But through a clever surgeon She has found humility untold.
