It is so sad that it is expected,
Those expectations of how you look,
How you should enhance your looks
To that look,
That others deem to be right.
It is a farce!
Beauty is not always seen
Outside the body.
To see the true beauty,
The true beauty of anybody,
All you need to do
Is look in their eyes.
True beauty within
Will be seen,
Seen in their eyes.
The eyes show you the world,
The world of beauty within everyone.

Andy,
Reading “Beauty Within” and Fay‘s “Be To Me”, made me think of the lyrics
‘Look into my eyes You will see’...
sung in one of my favorite songs by Bryan Adams—“(Everything I do)
I Do It For You”.
I enjoyed the read.
My mind was flooded
with many thoughts and
happy memories!
Thank you for sharing.

If we Refrain from lookin deeper, how will we ever know about the hidden treasures
Very true Suresh.

She looked into my eyes saying 'Now i know you are beautiful through and through, you look like you've been turned inside out!'
It didn't last.
Hello Goldfinch60,
A beautiful incredible write.
You have indeed captured wonderfully the true essence of beauty.
Julia Fordham, the singer said Beauty is about being yourself.
