True Art

There once was a girl

Just like the rest

With short light brown hair

And deep dark brown eyes

Even if she seemed

Like any other girl

She kept a little secret

Hidden from anyone else

When she spoke her mind

She became something else

Her eyes lit up like

Two bright shining stars

Truth is I've never

Seen anybody like her

So full of life and joy

With no regrets

She was a real masterpiece

Made by a great artist

Because her secret was

She was made of paint and dust

I had the chance

To meet this nice girl

And it was such a blessing

To be able to see into her eyes

Her smile was like heaven

And so was her voice

She sounded like birds

Chirping with joy

And when I had the chance

To gaze deep down her eyes

My body shivered

With fear and wonder

She made my days better

And always made me smile

And as time passed

I grew fond of her

Because she was

In fact, like nobody else

No one could ever be

Art, just like she was

And she reminded me 

Of nice things and star dust

Because like I said

She was true art
