A BEAUTIFUL SOUL  

I am human but not perfect

I am defined not by what you see but the essence that allows me to be

Upon first thought, I believed that change was not necessary because this is who I am meant to be  

 Each day, as reality is slowly released before my eyes, I see that life can change in an instant  

As I look into the mirror of tomorrow, I embrace the truth, the beauty of my entire self and my strength

I also realize that one must understand the beauty of self in order to embrace the true beauty of another and the opportunity of growth

 A BEAUTIFUL SOUL

 As each day turns into the next, life has handed me the opportunity to make the choice of shall I stay

Or

Shall I grow  

 

As growth is my choice, I realize my design is not written in stone

But instead

In the softness of sand

As I allow my soul to be free, I also realize the true beauty of me

And

I am only as beautiful as I allow my soul to truly be
