The Beauty in the Beast

august 22, 2021

if i stare at the sky

for hours

i know you never looked once

i know that where i find

beauty

you find malice and 

harsh tidings

i have fought to be

optimistic

and you have fought to 

make me believe only

the bad things exist in reality

so i stare at the stars

alone

because i deserve to 

see a little good

but so do you
