Beauty

To be beautiful that's all you cared But its the Beauty behind all that I seek To lose your beauty that's all you feared So you rather to loose your sanity to be sleek Ashes to ashes we'll all go back to dust Living a Lie and only loving to lust Now spare me the truth, let's keep it real You have a soft touch and a heart of steel Your makeup and hair, your best friends Music and party you traded for love I kept to myself hoping this would end Everyone sitting cute and playing pretend Beauty, simply a priceless treasure Let's take a perfect picture together Then look back tell me what you see... See how beautiful we both could be.

Sad, but beautiful. How our insecurities can plague us and in the end let us miss out on so many special things. Beautiful writing. Thank you.
