Real beauty
has her scars
knows her flaws
eyes look down
but not that...............................................Far
She's born of night
shadows walk away
from the moon
persuaded by the sun
to hold up the light
She's a beautiful picture
that bleeds
through a frame
of broken glass
people step over
as they pass
It's the truth in her
that blooms between
the poor and the rich
her beauty
is pieced together
like a stitch

ReplyDeletevery beautiful poem, structured on the "Platonic" that creates the charm and richness of messages.
My thought is that beauty is a word "abstract" ....the true beauty lies only in our emotions, which are "interpreters" of what our eyes see ...Chris, thanks for the poem.
Thanks, Dino! I appreciate the nice comment. Yes, I agree with you on the obscure message of what is real beauty. It's a beauty that comes from within that can be projected from the soul. I agree with your interpretation as well. Thanks for reading and giving me your insight. Have a great week! Chris
