Minuteness
July 11, 2016
You say you find me beautiful?
Stop there.
I might be beautiful now,
But once you know everything about me,
I will grow dull,
Plain.
So blur my lines,
Rub away my imperfections, my impurities.
Keep me a mystery,
And I’ll be forever beautiful.

Inspired by a quote from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice:
"Every view was pointed out with a minuteness which left beauty entirely behind."
