[bodytext] => How can I show you that you are beautiful when you always look the other way Finding imperfections with every living breath feeding yourself deceit every night as you lie in bed How can I show you that you are beautiful when you see only flaws in the diamond and not the sparkle that it holds You judge yourself with consequence tearing down what nature built and turning it into darkness cold How can I show you that you are beautiful when you don’t look into the mirror save with tear-streaked eyes How can you see yourself as I do when you’re peering through a looking glass warped by doubt and loathing brewed within your mind How can I show you that you are beautiful when your beauty is just too much and leaves me lost for words choking on every thought while trying to explain something so clear that it is written all over your face How can I show you that you’re beautiful when the world is not enough and a million voices fail to change your song unable to silence the doubt that beats away No I can’t show you that you’re beautiful No matter how hard I try But I’ll whisper it to you every night as you drift off to sleep and hope that one morning you’ll wake up with eyes wide open and see yourself as I do A perfect diamond A stunning reflection and a ray of sun piercing my own darkness taking the clouds away [comments] => 2 [counter] => 225 [topic] => 2 [informant] => Majesticpoet [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
