Your Beauty

May I hold you in my arms
May a place a kiss upon your sweet lips
May I admire you, and sip you slowly like wine
Your love and beauty it sinks  into my very soul
Your tears, I shall collect like diamonds
The man who threw acid in your face
One day I shall Kill Kill Kill Kill him 1000 times
Except that I can not
To do so would diminish your beauty
He made the world go blind
As I look at you, my eyes can see clearly
The most beautiful woman in the world

Hello, thanks again, and this is a very real issue, happening in many countries, something that really saddens me, however true beauty always shines from the inside out!

Well I would say she always was beautiful, when you see the true beauty of someone, they become timeless and ageless, the outside means nothing, for most that's just words, but to feel it in your own heart is true freedom, I know this may seem rare, but once this happens you see the world in a different light!!!!! :)
