Running sink and dishes mix with tears she cries Suds upon her hands mean she can't wipe her eyes She has heard it and it has once been mentioned So why can't she see it within her reflection She is so much more. She is beautiful.
The Painter's hand uses smooth brush strokes to paint her curls Which toss to and fro whenever she would swirl And she might not dance the best, but always with a smile Reminding inside this young woman was still a child And she would look at you. Smile with her eyes
She walks slowly to her room, the tears have dried Wounds still fresh, but still she says that she's all right I would give up heaven to make her never doubt To banish such thought that I can't seem to figure out
Her teeth a pearly white only comparable to angel's shine Biting her lip when she's thinking, turning bright red when she's shy No season could match how I feel when her love surrounds me Hugging me each time so tight, as if I was lost and she just found me
She sits there, solitary, on her bed, in the silence of her room Heartbeat echoes in her head where brutal thoughts that loom And I stand there, helplessly to see the girl of grace Lines etched and shining, showing where tears have fallen down her face And she is wonderful. And she is beautiful.
And I will remind her every day...
Named it after a song called "Heavy Day" by Syreeta Wright.
