Broken and bruised, battered and torn
Left an empty shell, nothing left
A dark hole surrounded with skin and bones
There was no hope, there was no light it was just dark
Yet you could walk in and tell her she was beautiful
She didn't see it and thought you a liar
But the sincerity there gave her a glimpse
Maybe there is something there
Every morning the phone rang
She'd answer you could tell there'd been nothing but fear no peace in the night
You'd say Good Morning Beautiful how was your night
She'd smile, the tears would flow but she couldn't see the beauty
She was a broken shell, feelings turned off
She denied her worth, tried to push you away
You fought on, good morning you're beautiful
The nightmare continued you tried to protect her when you could she just pushed you away further
She was falling deeper and deeper into that hole
Would she ever come out, recognize what you saw? You did not know
Every morning it continued good morning beautiful
Then one day your phone rang , it was her number she had no words
All you heard was sobs, she sniffed and said its over
You feared unsure what was over, she couldn't speak she just cried
All you could say was I am here beautiful
Then the most beautiful sound came very softly in between heart wrenching sobs , she said thank you
Then there was nothing but the tone
You were scared you called back but she did not answer ! Too far away to go to her you panicked did not sleep
The next morning you called and the phone was answered with good morning I'm beautiful
Every day there continues to be doubt , she does not feel beautiful
She's left alone , she managed to chase you away
Yet no matter the past, no matter the bruises , no matter the hurt and scars
The fear in the night
No matter that she is no longer yours
She wakes with the knowledge that you thought her beautiful
Time has passed much has changed! She's in a better place and now when you say good morning beautiful you are treated to beautiful laughter and you know at least in that second she believes you
