Inner beauty

In the gaze of a woman, beauty does unfold, Yet beyond the surface, a deeper story's told. For beauty lies not in skin's hue or grace, But in the depths of a passionate embrace. In seamless efforts to aid the needy's plight, To feed the hungry, and shelter from the night, Beauty finds its home in acts of grace, A love unselfish, a heart's steadfast embrace. The color of skin, a mere fleeting hue, But the beauty within, forever true. For it resides in the depths of the soul, A virtuous beacon, making hearts whole. External beauty fades with passing years, But inner beauty, through joy and tears, Leaves its mark on hearts, an enduring trace, A testament to love, in every embrace. Let us cherish the beauty within, A radiant light, where true love begins. For it's the soul's reflection, pure and whole, That binds us together, heart and soul.
