She is Beauty

She is beautiful and frightening all at once.

She's frightening like the last moments of sunset,

when the bright day gives way to darkness.

She is also beautiful like day break,

bright and sweet,

sometimes the brightness fades too quickly.

She is beauty,

in every sense of the word.

She is the perfect mix of light and dark.

I want to be there for all of it.

I want to be there when she is dark and needs a friendly face,

and I want to be there when she is bright and the world fills her with joy.

I want to lift her beautiful heart to high places.

I want to make her feel loved,

as she so much deserves.

I want to be there when she laughs,

so I can laugh with her,

and maybe, for a moment, feel as beautiful as she is.
