The Beauty in You

July 4, 2022

I love
that you remember
all of your mistakes
and can’t stand to see them

I love
that you think about
the people you did wrong
and want to write a better story

I love
that you rehearse the ways
in which you can be better
and try to make them happen

I love
that you’re still growing
always changing
wanting to be a better person

I love
that face you think is hideous
I can see the beauty in it
I can see the beauty in you

I love
the beauty in you
I hope one day
you will too
