Locked Away

By Robert C Price

When someone or something

looks beautiful to you

who can doubt your intentions

or argue your reasons

Your heart deems it worthy

and real

The mere reason that it brought

emotions to the surface has given

it weight and does not need an explanation

To those who don’t understand

you are the beholder of something rich

A color blast of outstanding vibrancy texture

character, truth, joy

Happiness is as fleeting as a snowflake but beauty does last

Locked away carefully in your heart with no outside influence
