The placid warmth of someone grieving The awakening of someone leaving To rest beside the sick To listen to the coping of the poor The invisible silence of the body releasing the soul Tiny bodies empty of hope Starving beauty expressed in face Every single bone and how it is placed
But when you think of beauty these never come to mind It hides so carefully fooling the eye Beauty hides in everything But still we remain so blind
Giving curiosity to those who seek its kind A species so striken with vanity and image A brain washing force that has no discipline And so you paint your face for others to see And lace your body with pearls to hide the inner tragedy Just as you realize your just as blind as vanity
