beauty distorted

beauty is in essence nothing more than acceptance.

when one acknowledges beauty, one

takes a picture from that precipice,

tends to that angel's every need,

for nothing lasts long if you let it go,

hold onto beauty as long as you please.

 

but sometimes you see beauty in your mirror,

the slightest reflection makes the situation clearer.

eyes like fire, jaw sharp as stone,

its a shame we cant rewire ourselves to avoid medusa's clone.
