she.

She wasn’t conventionally pretty.

She was messy, naturally variegated hair.

She was systematically arbitrary makeup.

She was lackadaisical outfits.

She was off-white teeth.

She was overall beguiling.

She was emotions personified.

She wasn’t conventionally pretty.

But maybe someone could think that she’s beautiful.

I like the focus on outward appearance until the 2nd to last stanza before the first line repeats

I like this creative take on the "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" idea. But it would sound more natural to me with the title "She."

right of course! though i did try to give it more, “look at her,” vibes because these words were spoken to me by my beautiful boyfriend. i see how it makes more sense, i will fix it soon. -mabel

She is unique and beauty on the outside doesn’t last. Inner beauty does and when you meet inner beauty you remember it.

unconventional, uncommon, unnoticed...
some may put beauty in a corner...and outwit themselves by doing so.

It's our imperfections that make us unique and stand out.
Perfection is over rated. There's no room for growth. That would be boring. 💛🙂
