Shit in my mouth oh, Acid House

A Young Lady's Paradox

you wait so long to be beautiful, until it finally reaches you and your personality does not count
you wish people could see past the physical and see the beauty of your soul
you wish your personality would draw people to you first
you wish for those deep down connections
you are torn
between giving up beauty for inner self
or ignoring inner self for immediate attention
how long will it take for someone to love me for who I am, completely?
who will embrace me for my faults, past, and complexity
who will se my outer shell second to my inner being
who will see beauty as an added bonus and not the other way around
who will pay attention to my words and not my mouth
who will see me
as a partner
who they admire
i will wait for the day, though the day may not come
and continue to love those as easily as my heart unfortunately falls.
