What is Your Beautiful?
Look in the mirror
What do you see?
I see radiance
I see an inner beauty unable to be tarnished
I see a firecracker of a girl lit by the wildfire of her wit
I see where she’s been broken and how she put herself back together
The tracks of her tears along the cracks
I see the remnants of the hatred she felt for herself before acceptance took root
I see the blurred lines where she tried to re-write her story
I see the parts of her she keeps locked way slowly slipping through their chains
Taking shape and manifesting in her character
I see her outer beauty
I see the way she smiles so easily, the different types she gives
I see the way her inner beauty shines through
Enhancing the outer beauty, her radiance
I see love
I see her past, her shame, her heart
I see me
The real me when I look in the mirror
What is your beautiful?
My beautiful is an ever-evolving stain glass window
Growing with every experience, uniquely me
