Beauty's Curse and Redemption

Beauty's Curse and Redemption
Chandré De Wet (I hope to work on this further)

She hides deep within
accustomed to glances
The beautiful girl
caught up in romances
Her vision askewed
in her mirror no beauty
Outside a painting
an apathetic smile her duty

Yet inside she screams
her tears are remembered
Her dreams are dwindling
yet crowd pleasing defended
Confused and alone
eyes dimmed to her loved ones
She grasps at the broken
feeling safe in shattered arms

Her beauty not skin deep
it reaches the depth of her soul
Yet she forfeits reality
and only sees a hole
If only her eyes opened
her true value she could know
She'd spend half her time in hiding
her inner self she'd show

She was made for greater pursuits
than her mirror and her loves
For she has greater pursuiter
Unending love from above
Love with power to heal
to remove her blinding scales
Love reaches out ot hold her
though she fears, It never fails

This love will never give up
even when beauty tries to curse
This love increases her value
the consequences reversed
She'll dance and sing and shower beauty
her confidence from within
The hope of glory has reedemed her
the beauty of Christ within

No more hiding, wake up sleeping beauty
there'll always be remaining glances
Your beauty,it captivates us
caught up in His dances
Your eyes are on your maker
His cross beam now your mirror
Your outside beauty trickles
from your inner beauty river!
