Her beauty lies—in more ways than one—just outside her glance
It whispers softly of mediocrity via her ear, straight to her heart
Trying so hard to protect her from the corruption of its curse
Muting what should be so loud to her own eyes

It hides from her

Her full, flowing hair… it’s filled with it
It spreads itself entirely, coating her smooth, flawless skin
It reflects deeply from within her penetrating brown eyes
Only to hint softly along the curves of her delicately colored lips

Boastfully, it explodes from within… where all is safe
She touches hearts without making contact
Spreads smiles like they were contagious
All from beneath her skin, which is no different in beauty form her exterior.
