Individual Beauty

I am not considered beautiful to others
For I don't have an appealing face
I don't walk with grace
And I don't have a body shaped as curvy as a vase
I am not considered beautiful to others
For I don't always smile
I don't stay with today's style
And I don't have hair that runs mile to mile
I am not considered beautiful to others
For I don't gossip about the population
I don't join in the evils of my generation
And I don't have the "swag" to maintain a popular reputation
But I am considered beautiful
To the holy one above
Who has given his love
To this "unacceptable", broken winged dove
So for those who don't consider me beautiful
You have a long way to go
For beauty is not determined by popularity and a great physique
But by a great, unique soul.

I hope this doesn't sound to cliché for this is how I truly feel about beauty and being outsider. Hope everyone finds meaning and a message in this. Thanks for reading.
