A View of What's Real

By Soulseeker

A View of What's Real

I wipe the sleep from my eyes..
coming from dreams where my face never mattered..
Who ever said that beauty comes with dirt..
The same dirt we try so hard to cleanse our pores of.
Who ever said that beauty needed anything except
a mind
&
a heart?
This is really me...
Why is that so hard,
so hard for you to simply accept... what is real..

    Bethany you are such a beautiful person. I hope that you grow from the struggles you are going through. You are a butterfly emerging from a caccoon. There are so many things I would like to say but I don't know how. I hope with all of my heart things
