Beautiful

Is just a word

A word

That may have meaning

It may make you feel indulged with happiness

Give you hope

Give you strength

But then again

Aren't those just words too?

Sticks and Stones can break my bones but nothing more nothing less

Oh how wrong they were

Telling you how beautiful you were as a child

Or

Showing you how beautiful you could be on the blank screen called a TV

Oh how wrong they were

To tell you that you that you could be beautiful without any makeup on or sparkly jewels

Or

To be beautiful you had to look inside yourself

Because inside yourself was a being of pure beauty

Oh how wrong they were

Painting beautiful pictures of ladies you'd never seen saying "Mommy, am I that pretty too?"

She'd nod with a small reply

Oh how wrong that was

For you see

Beauty is just a word

Not a thing we can express with a being

Or a canvas

Or with TV

Beautiful is just a word

And nothing more

It may have meaning

But aren't those just words too?
