Beauty's Premise

Beauty is an empty premise
  Whose truth is sorely tested
Valor's bell chimes crystal clear
  In quiet heroes is it nested

Eloquent and profound, I don't find 'plastic' appearances too appealing, it's the hidden beauty that is valuable-

Beauty is as beauty treats others I think, and that is heroic, so this appeals to me.
