In a castle where shadows crept and curled,
Lived a beast, feared by the world.
But within his roar, a silence dwelled,
A heart that once in sorrow swelled.
Beauty saw beyond the beastly mask,
In kindness, she found her task.
For love, she knew, is not just sight,
It blooms in the darkest night.
She taught that grace is more than skin,
It’s the love we give, the strength within.
In patience, she untied the knot,
That cruelty and fear had tightly wrought.
The beast’s true face was never shown,
Until Beauty’s love had grown.
A lesson here, both old and new,
True beauty is found in what we do.
So heed this tale, let love be your guide,
For every beast has a soul inside.
It’s in the heart, where true love's feast,
We find our beauty, we find our beast.
