spit, mixed with dirt – muddy words flow
She thinks she’s ugly
She thinks she’s unworthy
She thinks she’s a freak
She doesn’t see herself the way I see her
Look through my eyes, you’ll see
She’s beautiful and lovely
Her eyes speak volumes and her smile is sincere
She’s special and unique
Her worth is beyond any treasure in the ocean
She’s brilliant and creative
Her words speak deeper things which do create
She is a poet of the light
She whispers of a poet’s heart
She’s wonderful
She’s worthy
She is enough
