    Beauty Hides

    I've seen where beauty hides  It in our hearts of freedom  As the land escapes the tide  I have seen where beauty hides    Your eyes are the ponds  In the shade of summer  Your eyes are the stream in spring Your eyes are blue skies of...

    • Wonderful write. It has a calming effect, even.
      Not enough honest, heart felt writes are done by men. It’s good to see you’re brave enough to pick up that torch. You did so well.

      • Thanks for reading.

    • We remembered this time, hahaha. Thank you Lady this one took it’s toll of us, but we got it written

    • I have seen similar situations. Habits can manifest into monsters. Change people into someone
      you don’t recognize. By the time you realize what happened it’s too late, too many bridges burned.

      You presented this well.
