beauty is not only skin deep
beauty runs within our veins
beauty is in the words we say
and in our thoughts

beauty is not in the eye of the beholder
beauty is the eye and the beholder
beauty is in us and all around us

there is beauty in the way we love and the way in which we are loved

Beauty is not only skin deep.
Beauty is us.
We are beautiful.

My eyes are itching,
"NO!" I utter to myself.
I always end up crying.
                                                                  
The first tear tickles, it sends
vibrations down my spine.
These keep on rolling,they leave me.
These precious tears of mine.                

I value my tears.
For they are mine and mine alone.
Only you can make me cry                  
and soften up this heart of stone.

maybe we are like the opposite
ends of the same magnet
perfectly designed for one another
but never meant to touch.

Us
it was not you
nor was it me
it was not us
for us does not exist

i cannot hold your
drunken thoughts against
your sober self

i still dont understand
the things you had planned,
was there ever a plan at all?

the pattern of your actions,
becomes crystal clear:              
crush.
break.
but never fall.
but you're not real.
