Where does the true beauty lie?
Within the heart, not the eye...
He thinks...
Her allusive fire
Her elation I admire
her skin that I desire
Her eyes...
We were forever
We are now never
Together...
But what is beauty? It is falsely termed
Beauty is not born, Beauty it is earned
Not to search beyond the skin; a disgrace
The beauty within, not upon a face.
Her Face reflects off soft current of the ocean,
But her outer beauty does not compare to her emotion.
What's truly beautiful is what lies on the inside.
And something like that, does not need to hide.

Do you actually feel this way about looks?
Anyways..
"Within the heart, not the eye..."
Sounds like a movie tagline to be honest...cool.
Or you know...this could be a song for Dove, advocating inner beauty.
