So much prettier than you think you are
If I could paint a work of art
To describe the beauty you not only possess
But embody…
Framed in gold and yellow
Your voice sang to me in a hallucination
You’re exhausted
And worn down
But people rub the toes of statues
And it makes them shine
Don’t you see the way you glitter?
