She Does Not Know Her True Skin
Beauty is in the child that cannot be sure when we will eat next, but still plays.
Beauty is in the child that
does not know the difference between right and wrong, but always seems so helpless.
Beauty is in the ones we see on TV and think they only exist in commercials, but are real.
Beauty is not about skin and bones and perfect hair.
Beauty is in the ones we would never expect it to be in. The helpless, the lame, and the weak.
