Image Of Beauty Poem by Brisa Maia

In her body I see beauty
I see things I could never be
I know I can’t compare to her
As she will never be compared to me
She’s so popular, of course
All of them want to be with her, to be seen with her
And she does not have shame
No, she never backs away
They touch her and love her
And she lets them
But in the end, both have nothing to say
But then you come along
You open my eyes, you help me see
That inside….
I am more than she will ever be
On the inside
My heart is the true image of beauty
Now I know she doesn’t matter
Because you have helped me, find the girl within
you have helped me find ME
