i see so much.

i see the beauty.
i see the detail in your eyes,
i see the wrinkles in your hands.
i see the smile in your soul,
and i see the joy in your stomach.

i may not have seen enough pain or suffering
but i always
always
always
see beauty in my life
and yours as well.

i see it all,
even when i least expect it.

i see the smile trying to break forth from within,
i see the strength in your bones,
i see the shield of courage you put on
for your children.

i see so much.
and i can feel every bit of it.
each form of beauty,
different but good
kisses my skin like the wind.

it's undoubtedly there.
all of the beauty in the world,
i can always see it.

will you come by my side
and look a little harder too?
