Beauty

Beauty

Beauty is only skin deep,
So cut me and I’ll bleed for you.
Take away my eyes and smile
And leave behind nothing of grandeur,
And you’ll still see the beauty that pumps through my veins.
For I am not just what you see on the outside,
I am rather more than that.
I am words and music and song,
Pictures and laughs and smiles.
I am a part of you,
Just as you are a part of me.
And I am so much more than the separate pieces,
I am the sum of the parts, the whole.
I am the wind that whistles through the trees,
The gushing stream, the laughing brook.
Beauty is only skin deep,
And I am beautiful through and through.
