When my eyes see you
My heart clenches up and burns
I'm too afraid you'll hate me
So I don't show myself to you.
In my dreams you're next to me
And in the light of the sun we dance
In a place with no hatred or darkness
I can show my true heart to you.
But in real life, dreams don't come true
My face is covered with acne and scars
I don't look beautiful, other girls look like stars
They shine so brightly in your eyes, I feel envy.
I wish I could show myself to you
But I'm not as beautiful as the others
So I must hide, but if you do one thing
If you promise you won't judge me...
Only then can I show myself to you
If love is blind, look at me with only love
Only then, only then, if you only could
But you are blinded by judgement.
You see nothing other than monsters in sunsets
You see nothing other than angels in midnight
You cannot understand true beauty
For it is right in front of you at all times.
True beauty is me
It's you, the reader
All of us are beautiful
But nobody notices our true beauty.
Let us then embrace and love one another
Love as we thought we never could
And maybe someday we can be noticed
For the beauty of our hearts.
The beauty of your heart is true beauty.
