what she beamed

She was dressed in black but her smile was beaming with sunshine

Her black lipstick against her pearly whites made the world stop and stare

She was like a star in the navy night sky

Shining amidst the darkness

Perhaps she was a revelation

We shine most in the recesses of existence

We shine most when we feel least

Perhaps this she beamed a truth we've forsaken...
