        Beauty goes deeper then the surface.

So much deeper.

Deeper then your cuts

deeper then the scars

Deeper then the tears that mark your face

You have light why do you hide away?

Maybe your teeth are crooked

Maybe you have bump on your nose

Maybe your stomach isn't as flat as the girl next door's 

Maybe red dots litter your face

You tell yourself that no one will love you

you aren't good enough

Words are thrown at the mirror and bounce back at your pretty face like rocks

You have scars

You have marks

You have stripes 

You are a warrior 

Perfection is over rated.

you are not.

Because beauty fades
