ok, i dunno if i really like this one that much, i need to fix it up, but i'll share anyway...

Vera Bellezza by Dorea N.

Now tell me where beauty truly lies
is it in the eyes
of that living, breathing work of art?
is it in the heart
of that precious one with the innocence of a child?
and all the while
tracing back to the heart of someone you adore
digging and delving and reaching for more
so close to you, you feel their life
warmth so poignant like the tip of a knife
yet gentle, so delicate
light flashes around you at an inconceiveable rate
but your eyes still fixated
it seems destiny has fated and this is why you waited
a breath and a whisper
emotions stir and visions blur
into the vehemence of your souls...
~~~
I can taste perfection
gazing into the reflection
of eyes that speak a thousand silent words
in all this i hear a closemouthed cry
tell me a secret and i know why
i can touch glory
and tell an epic story
voiceless and taciturn
these eyes will burn
a rapturous stare
the two sets lock together as a pair
all else fades, left only with the bare, to realize
i have found where true beauty really lies...
