Beauty


Beauty,

Something everybody strives for.
 
Something some people never find.
 
They look in all the wrong places.
 
In all the makeup and
 
hairstyles and
 
body types and
 
false hopes society thinks are acceptable.
 
Only the few
 
that have no room for the lies and
 
bullshit others call
 
a lifestyle
 
have found real beauty.
 
They know that it cant be bought,
 
seduced,
 
or taken.
 
Its something inside you
 
that is more beautiful
 
than any mask.
