My Own Beauty
May 17, 2014
Beginning feels as though the end
Utter affliction
Telling yourself the lies,
The crippled wounds.
Enter the light
Reality striking
Falling into place are the pieces
Lovely are the ones to come
Your name in a reflection
Beside the word beautiful
East is where you look
All around is where you don’t
Underlying perfection
Time to tell yourself the truth
You are the beauty you saw in everyone else.
