You are not quite beautiful enough



You are not quite beautiful enough.
Even when you are listening to your best friend’s
Sad sad song
Even when you lean against the wall with your blue shirt
Your delicate face reflected in my computer screen
Under the dim light is you messy hair
Even when the slight wrinkles near your eye
Marks of aged memories
Resonating with the half-smiling
Corner of your month

You are not quite beautiful enough
Because you don’t see my beauty.

That sad sad songs,
Will also touch the string of another soul,
If you understand my stubbornness, my heartbreak,
And my brilliant star of a heart and brain
If you ever notice the sparkle of my eyes
My sorrow, my emotions
My all-encompassing passionate fire of a soul
If you ever wonder about the richness of my mind
If you ever read my poem
If you ever look into my eye.

No you don’t.
The world is about you.
Everybody else ought to have paid you more complements.

Thus you are not quite beautiful enough,
As you can’t appreciate my stunning beauty.
