Christy Marie
Only very rare things truly beautify with time.
She is a beautifully colored piece of broken beach glass
Made smooth by the work of her own hands
A cruel world only sees her tarnished by the weather and waves of time
They miss what I see; the beauty of how she’s put herself together
The powerful soul inside her made her whole again
She glistens brightly in the warm sunlight among the regular stones on the beach
For all the world to observe in awe of her grand beauty
