Beauty

Beauty
beauty, beauty, I don’t recognize 100%
I don’t see fair, I’m confident…
Like a manual German machine, I’m Neutral
Like a four-year old boy, I’m enquiring

But, through You beauty is distinct
Beauty is when I look at you and understand smile
It is not open-air where beauty lodges
But within, where smile arises

You’re a guide to beauty
You’re a habitat to beauty
Beauty trusts upon you
For You are beauty’s true definition

Beauty is when you take away your glasses but still shine 
Beauty is when beauty can’t go round you
Beauty is when beauty can’t go overhead you
Beauty is when beauty can’t go without you
Beauty is when beauty can’t go beneath you
Beauty is when beauty goes through you 
Beauty is when beauty can’t live without you
…You are beauty
