you do not search for beauty.

beauty just is.

to search for beauty is to give form to nothing.

how do you describe nothing? What does nothing look like?

beauty is the same.

an image of beauty is different to everyone, but it is easily recognizable as beauty to an individual.

if you are searching for beauty, you are not using your heart.

for beauty is rarely seen, but is actually felt.

you may say that something is beautiful, but before the words could pass your lips, your heart already declared it beautiful.

Do not tell me that beauty is at the mouth of a labyrinth.

you do not search for beauty, nor do you get lost in it.

beauty is simply that.

beauty just is.

A/N: This was inspired by a quote by Simone Wells that I saw posted on one of the many social media platforms.
