I met a Lady today


I met a Lady today. She wore her clothes in different sophisticated arrays. Her hat was on just right. Not too far to the left, and not too far to the right.

She wore an intoxicating perfume. That demanded my attention from across the room.Her words, her touch, her smiling eyes.

Her addictive laugh, I swear, such beauty can bring a tear to a man’s eye.

I have seen girls like that before. But whatever they did she could do more.

How she unknowingly ordered you to her charm,
And acted so calm and collected when around her you put your arm.


What a real something that girl was, Intelligent, intuitive and reactive.

Acts before she thinks, and leaves herself wondering how she did what she did.

But enough of her pretty side now, Because like a coin a girl often has 2 sides, with one in disguise.

She’s intoxicated with her looks, her moves and her charm. One could say that when she holds herself, her lover is in her arms.

She feeds off the attention, and like a fool she is guilty of pretension.

She’s only oh so hollow, hallow and wasted,

She longs for a love she has never tasted.

And for the redemption for which she had patiently waited.

But Alas how can one see redemption when their eyes are on themselves?

Or on other’s reactions to themselves?

You see redemption is a hard acquired thing.

For us its cheap as dirt but for God it was the price of our sins. But how is she to get it now?

Christ knocks on the door while she is somewhere about.

This surely is more complex than most could see.

To her beauty she’s a slave and cannot be free.

So next time you see the girl in sophisticated arrays, don’t fall in her trap.But know very well that; like you; she’s the victim of our society…a mere Hollywood fad.

but... could you judge a book by its cover?

Awesome.

Most people (guys and girls alike) fall for a person JUST LIKE THIS.

Experience says to me that beauty is only skin deep, and it's what's on the inside that counts.... well, physical attraction does count for something too.

Okay, I think I got it! This is a truthful piece for both male and female, but at the same time I think that Ummm I did see a lot of me in this post! Sometimes when we want to fit in, if only for a split, that confident side does come out, I don't feel that it is wrong. But!!!!!! I also think that first impression if it is fake and it is a conceited manor is what people tend to want to see in your all the time, because they think that this is the real YOU!

Grey, My man! I don't know if it is what you can call Judging, it is more of a observation, if you can understand me. Everyone loves the outside beauty, that is what captivates them.But in all actuality it is what is beneath that beauty that really counts! RIGHT!!!

Correct me if I am wrong H..

Shalom & Ahava!

Karen said...

interesting. I had the same thought as Grey off the bat - is it wrong to judge someone just on the basis of their beauty?

DeusVicit said...

But I am not judging her on the basis of her beauty, I am also exposing the kind of person she is on the inside.

Its about how she acts...how she thinks and not how she looks like.
