The Beast

Close your eyes
     Open your heart
See the beauty of the beast
     See not his hands
              But
        Feel his touch
     Look into his eyes
   And know his kindness
        Hold his heart
       Feel his passion
  Look at his falling tears
  They come from his soul
         Now you know
    There is more to him
     Then meets the eye
   Beauty within the beast
     That is where it lies
