Looks


Looks are not everything

Only subtle like a wing.

The outside can look great

When the inside is filled with hate.

Looks are just tricks

And the heart is what ticks.

Find the good things

Then throw out the bad.

He may be big and buff,

But slowly going mad.

She may be beautiful and cute,

Yet inwardly a snoot.

So look at the heart

Not the amazing art

Of facial features

And body figures

Because looks are not everything.
