Belle Âme
Sarah Jewell: French Quarter
belle âme
No matter what they say
You are beautiful
Very often you hear
That true beauty is on the inside
And there is no truer statement
But, for those who still think
That beauty is found on the skin
Let me prove to you
That beauty is only found within
Beautiful are those who overflow with love
Who pray not only for friends and family
But for the lost souls and the enemies
Who project a blissful spirit
And give comfort to those who seek it
Beautiful are those who have the bravery of lions
Who stand firm in their beliefs
Who may be knocked down by others
But choose to rise back up and maintain hope
Those who spread words of peace
But aren’t afraid to turn them into war cries
Beautiful are those who put others before themselves
Who choose to guide those who are lost
Instead of leading them astray for a laugh
Who choose to break the status quo
When society will only tell them “no”
And so I say to those
With courage, purity of heart
And with the true King by their side
If you were any more beautiful
You would be embedded into the heavens
