| Your True Beauty |
| Beauty shows from an inward place The beauty shines right through The beauty not as in your face But, the beauty of the real you Not your body nor your face Not the beauty that is at first seen But, the beauty that emerges from the depths of you The beauty from behind the screen The beauty that is the best of you The beauty that you're afraid to release The beauty that shines from behind your eyes The beauty and the confident peace The gentle beauty that at first is missed When from the outside one at first can see The kind of beauty that is in your face Rather than the true beauty that lies just beneath The beauty that makes you who you are Rather than the beauty that at first people see The beauty that draws me ever so close The beauty that I pray is in me |
