Vigorous Beauty

The simplicity in her eyes lead to complications in your life,
Her beauty project the fear in your subconscious,
This angelic face in disguise in what could become a lethal weapon, 
Her skinny body is the feather that broke the camel's back, 
A gracious smile sending vibes to her neighbors in their dreams,
And her neighbors are everywhere you go,
She clicks her fingers and her paintings become the noble reality,
You look at those eyes and you are no longer a hustler, 
She makes you the best version of you, just with some small cracks, 
Don't try to fix those cracks,
She is the antidote you have to submit to her to be complete.

Diaa, a powerful poem about a strong woman, yet "skinny." The contrasts - or contradictions - are true to life, and a big puzzle. This line is one: "She makes you the best version of you," followed by the strange advice in the last 2 lines. I like it for it seems true (& scary?)
