Beauty All Around Me Poem by Liam Hughes

I see beauty all around me
It’s in the sky
In the birds that cry
In the way they fly
It’s in your eye
And it’s resting there on the pillow where you lie

I feel confusion all around me
It’s in my head
It’s in my dread
In the words I read
It’s in what you said
While you were lying there next to me in my bed

I feel no worries around me
Not behind the door
Not under the floor
Not in the draw
Not in the things I saw
I could search forever but never find a flaw

I see beauty all around me
It’s in the star
It seems so far
It leaves a scar
Is it so bazaar
That it’s everywhere that you ever are
