And the next item on the lot
She is a hidden beauty
Though she may not look the most appealing on the outside
She has a story to tell
From the scars on her arms that require a question
To the raging pool of sadness behind her eyes
She can be a handful
But there is no one who will love you more fiercely
Or with more loyalty
She is unsure of herself
Steps down to anyone who looks her in the eye
And dances around doing anything for the first time
Least she gets it wrong
And she does
Again and
Again
But she's a quick learner
She's passionate with her study
Her study of the soul
Of the heart
I promise you, if a hidden beauty is what you seek
Then look no further
She can mean a thousand things with just a glance
A thousand more with the twitch of her mouth
She will kiss you like no one is watching
She will hold you like she's scared to let go
All she requires is your love and a promise
To be carful with her
Be carful with her fragile heart
Her wandering mind
Take care of her
And she will love you until it hurts
Going once, going twice
Sold.
