I'm none of those things....
I have duck feet.
Zits line my cheekbones.
I'm taller than all the boys.
My hair's a nest.
My eyes, comparable to mud.
Lips chapped as a desert after a sandstorm.
My tan lines, atrocious.
Everything about me is long and lanky. awkward. ugly.
You don't know how badly
I need you to look me in the eye
and tell me that I'm beautiful,
and mean every single sylable.
You don't know how badly
I want you to think I'm beautiful.
Not pretty. Not sexy. Not attractive.
Beautiful.
Simlply Beautiful. Elegantly Beautiful. Beautiful me.
But if you tell me that I'm beautiful, I'll only have one thing to say.
Me, Beautiful? Good one.
Beauty
ReplyDeleteBeauty will see what no eye can,
God’s hidden mystery and plan,
The heart that holds the longing soul,
For triumphs come in spite of toll,
Faith must reside in yearning mind,
That day will come with twain entwined,
Our brightest hope shall be revealed,
And in that hour our soul be healed,
A smile shines forth; can’t be undone,
For on that day our hearts are one.
P.S. You are Beautiful!!
"Psalm 139:14
I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well."
I have been studing that verse. This is old poetry. I will post the new way I feel soon. I really like your poem. I'm glad that a sister in Christ is looking at my poetry. I will comment on this again when I have the new poem typed up and written.
ReplyDeleteHaha is my writing style that feminine? How do you know this isn't a brother in Christ :P Your poetry is really good! I would descibe it to be clean and refreshing :) God bless!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I guessed because I thought girls would understand this feeling more than guys. And I don't think your writing style is girly at all. I loved how you made it rhyme, it's hard for me to do that. I just pour my feelings on a page and hope it sounds ok:)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, since I don't know, I'm glad to have a sibling in Christ reading what I write. And I'm glad that being a girl was what you denied not being a Christian.
