You're Beautiful, You Know

You’re beautiful, you know.
You don’t see it because you’re afraid to love yourself.
You need to forget about the shadows lying behind you
And focus on the rainbow that glistens beneath your skin.

You’re sweet, you know.
Your goofy grins hold so much concern and gentleness.
There are no spirits you can’t lift, no laughter you can’t spark.
Nothing can beat your gentle touch or your warm hugs.

You’re strong, you know.
You’re not afraid to jump in mud puddles or change lives.
You make your mark solid and dark.
Don’t let anyone hold you back; you deserve more than that.

I love you, you know.
Beauty counts more in the heart than in the face.
Gentleness and concern is worth more than wit.
Strength has a greater meaning when founded on a heavy dousing of pain.

You are my world, you know.
