genuine beauty

4.17.2012

he watches her
tall
hair long and soft
lacking womanly curve
but not womanly character

he admires her bravery
quiet
but exceptionally intelligent
she holds her head high
despite the circumstances
humble
and heart overflowing
with love
she wears make-up
and though minimal

he knows she doesn't need it
she writes on napkins
ravishing words
and paints on canvases
exquisite colors

he watches her
and thinks
you are genuinely beautiful
