The Beauty of You

The beauty of you

Ups and downs in life
This beautiful journey
If life was just good days
It’d be flat just like the Prairies

But its not
And neither are you
As much as we are the same
We are different too

Our beauty lies within
Sometimes it is in a dark place
Sometimes it is hidden
This beauty of yours
Is not just your reflection

This beauty is in your mind and heart
True beauty is inside you
Locked away like precious art

Please see the signs
Please find the clues
The true beauty of today
The true beauty of you

Is who you are deep down
And all that you have been through

Beauty is an attitude birthed in one's soul. It's a vulnerable child that can be destroyed by negative influence (internal or external). But if it's protected it blooms and the bearer of such beauty radiates. A positive life energy comes off of them and affects all who see her peddles!
