Beauty


But everyone's beautiful right?
No everyone is not beautiful, not to our standards
I cannot be beautiful
You cannot be beautiful 
no one can be beautiful unless their perfect
we are taught this from a young age
growing up with this in our minds
but tell me have you ever seen perfect

 

no 

 

then how do you that its beautiful
perfect is not beautiful at all 
perfect cannot be beauty because perfect does not exist
and I know that beauty exists because I can see it 
its in everything everywhere
so the answer to your question
Not everyone but everything is beautiful.
