I’m not a pretty woman.

But when I close my eyes,
I instantly become every beautiful
she that ever lived –

ancient queens,
    somber priestesses
          slave girls.

The years disappear,
time no longer creasing
my face around eyes
from which too many
memories shine.

So, please, for me,
     close your eyes and
          let me be beautiful

     once more.

Thank you, Katie. :hug:

:whisper: I think we're all beautiful... :heart:
:iconblueskye27:
At least, if we'll let ourselves be without always tying it to other people's eyes (if that makes sense).
:iconottersandsky:
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. It's just hard to put into practice.
:iconcolonelfitz:
Sometimes we can only see beauty when we're not looking. :)

That phrase was kind of heart-wrenching. Which really just makes even better.:heart:
