Life Likes A New Penny

Life is like a new penny,
Starts off all shinny and pretty,
Then it falls, hits the dirt,
And over time, it starts to look shitty.

You start to feel convinced,
That yours is the only one this way,
You start to stay home,
And never go out to play.

Until one day, you open your eyes,
And see something shinny in disguise,
Is your true love, could it really be?
Or just the sunshine, shinning upon me?

You look closer, and find the truth,
It’s another penny looking at you,
It’s looking beautiful, and you’re in love,
But not quit sure what to do with this love…

You step closer, and realize the truth,
Break away from the shell of nervous,
You see it for what its made of,
And not what’s on the surface.

Beauty isn’t skin deep,
True beauty lys within…
