* a heart of gold *©

Some feel because someone looks different they're a freak,
well being different just makes them unique.
I once knew a man with a hump on his back and he didn't scare me in the least,
in him i saw beauty and in those blind to it i saw the beast.
People need not be ashamed for they can't help what they look like on the outside,
it's the shallowness within they should try to hide.
You don't have to look like a star,
if you have a shining heart of gold that's just what you are.
Having good looks doesn't make you rich never should,
having riches inside makes you look good.
The beauty within leaves a trace that will stay,
for the beauty on the surface just fades away!
