Thoughts in Bold Ink

Beautiful

I was dipped in a golden caramel

Filling in fill ins full enough to make you look twice

But simple enough for you to whisper a sacred "wow"

You look at me and can't put your finger on what makes me special

And those who love me watch out for me

Ready to challenge anyone who tries to even lay a finger on what makes me special

And so you just watch

As I pour my heart of gold into the world

To make it a little less blue

And a little more beautiful

You listen

As I sing with a voice of velvet

Making music that moves, lives, breathes
You admire

As I create art with my mind, my mind

My mind is my most beautiful feature

Like a poetic box of colors and spontaneity

And just when you thought I couldn't get any more beautiful

You examine my mind

You consider the universe of beautiful things within me

That outshines the physical

And you fall in love

And yet I feel nothing because, though you love me

You love me from a distance

But when you find the courage to love me up close

I'll be here

And I'll be beautiful

And we can be beautiful

Together.
