First sight differs from the norm
First see beauty like a storm
Though not being just the same
Still eye pleasure without blame
Skill in words, in song and voice
In arts and making a choice
When compared to other blood
That's when change comes like a flood
At the sister take a look
Stealing thunder like a crook
Or the friend, close as the last
Take all the love, take the past
In body better than most
Though not something I will boast
For in the mirror will come
Blood pumping and heart will drum
After time, hard as it seems
Through the hardships and the dreams
Seeing through the eyes of God
Myths unfolding like a pod
Finally learned of self-love
Though not to forget above
No longer sees only sin
Now just sees beauty within

Thank you for your entry. I love the last line, "Now just sees beauty within." So many of us have been here... I experienced the same thing myself.
