in you, there is a heart no one dares to see
but I saw it.
Underneath the scarred chest and,
broken ribs, hides in you
a sacred treasure
buried beneath years of
unimaginable pain. Broken girl,
beautiful child,
I'm here to tell you the truth,
that you are truly
magnificent. Excellent. Wonderful.
Valuable
broken, but beautiful girl,
I wanted to let you know,
that I see you,
I can see you.
I see your heart,
I see the beauty hidden underneath all of your scars.
You are not invisible.
I see the lines of sadness engraved deeply into your big, sunken eyes
I see the thick, darkened circles that surround them,
passed the array of shades you paint on to hide them.
I see you.
I can see passed your "hard" exterior,
your
loud mouth shouting out
your
deepest insecurities
wounds
fears.
I see the heart of a little girl
who's been beaten and bruised and forced
to choke down the lie
that she's not enough.
That she's worthless.
Imperfect.
A screw up.
Beautiful girl,
I'm here to tell you,
that you are altogether lovely,
darling, there is no flaw in you.
You can wear whatever you want.
Spray paint on
whichever face you please to please
other people.
But beautiful girl,
I want you to know that I can still see you.
See you.
And beautiful girl,
I have heard your hard words
as desperate cries
for a Savior.
Beautiful girl,
I know you long to be free
you long to be seen.
I know you.
I know you're longing for rescue,
from this hell of a life
that you've been forced to live.
I see you.
And,
you are beautiful.
"Open up your heart, and let Me in..."
**Dedicated to a beautiful girl I saw on the lightrail, and to all of the other beautiful girls like her.
--Peace and Love.
This is so amazing. Wow.
