Beauty

What is true Beauty?
Does it comes with it a list, or
Does it come with duties?
Can it give the down a lift?

Is it a thing,
Or is it a person?
Does it embody the heart,
So someone’s fears won’t worsen?

Rejection after rejection
My lips have tightened.
But after truly seeing you
I have been enlightened.

I have gone throughout life
With distractions in my way.
But with this lovely feeling
I look to God and say.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
If you find favor in me
Please allow me to hold her
I promise not to cause pain
To lie, or to scold her
She is the definition of beauty
No one can ask for more
You are the one I thank,
For she’s the one I’ve been praying for
The saying beauty is in the eye of the beholder has been in my head for months now. I had to put it into words.
