Cover Girl

In your photograph, I see your face, As does the entire world. Do they see what lies beyond, Inside, that little girl? As I look into your eyes I sense you dream, you hope. I pray each time I gaze at them For days that you can cope. In your smile, I see reality Has contributed to your view. Two dimensional image we see, But never, the real you. There’s more to you than meets the eye, the readers should all know. But, they will only ever see That which you will only show. I looked upon your photo today And saw the beauty in you. If others ever dare to see, Then they will love you, too.
