Literary: On A Pedestal
“How can someone be so perfect?”
When one lays eyes on you,
This is the question always uttered
But is never actually answered
How can they not wonder?
With skin as fair as snow
And eyes impossibly fathomless
With lips that promise intelligence
And words that can soothe any tired soul
With a prominent nose
That highlights everything
And dimples gracefully appearing
Like an angel’s kiss too deep
With a smile that holds enough mystery
And laughter that beats any symphony
But unlike the majority
Who fawn over your external charms for a moment,
Then move on to the next exhibit
I luckily saw something your label did omit
They never recognized
How you help people without their consent
Then hide when they ask whom to thank
How you tirelessly offer support
To anyone who is about to give up
How you effortlessly create smiles
With hilarious jokes and antics
How you refuse to be ordinary
Doing things the way you want to
And how you give plenty of love away
Without worrying if you’d be repaid
After discovering what glimpses failed to notice
I now have an answer to the question constantly asked
“I realized how you’re not just a piece that's breathtaking to look at
You’re perfect because you’re someone much more beneath all that”
