The depth of a woman

Look at me
What do you see
Beneath this veil of skin?
Do you find truth
In depth and root
Or merely  surface thin?

I can be
Simply what you see
Outside this veil of skin
But you’ll never know
What lies below
If you fail to look within

More than this
Than briefest kiss
Than rosy lips aglow
Than pooled blue eyes
And killer thighs
And rings upon my toes

I am mind
Intellect you’ll find
Heart and soul in motion
I am strength
And loving grace
I am as vast as the ocean

Open your eyes
And see what lies
Beneath this veil of skin
Delve deep below
And come to know
Let the truth of me ascend

S.A.T.

The whole of the Universe resides within each individual heart.

That depth is the only thing that counts. It is the source and destination of beauty. The rest is either pretty or not, and doesn't matter much either way.

Like a future love I'd hope to have. Exactly...how she'd see herself.

I believe most men look into the depth of a woman if they are desiring an enduring relationship...James

Thank you all.  It seems we are all so over exposed to the media's idea of beauty.  I know that men of depth, which most are, see the depth in a woman.  I just wish, for the sake of our young women, that they knew that.
