‘There is beauty that dulls like the blade of a knife
with use:
And there is beauty that shines only in youth.
Beauty that gleams like sun struck by the sun:
That blinds the eyes of some.
Yet take away the light and we see straight through:
But real beauty keeps shining through.
For this beauty needs no disguise:
The light that shines within your eyes,
It’s like a flickering flame that never dies.’
