And when you see the cut yourself,

in that handheld mirror,

you’ll smile a really big smile.

That’s the you that you love the most.

That’s the you that wins—everything.

That’s the gold medal you.

Every person in the shop will rise to their feet

and give you a round of applause

for being so FLY!

Not really . . . but they’ll look like they want to.

You’ll see it in their eyes.

It’s the look your English teacher gives you

when she hands you your last test

with a bright red 97 slapped on it.

It’s how your mother looks at you

before she calls you beautiful.

Flowers are beautiful.

Sunrises are beautiful.

Being viewed in your mother’s eyes

as someone that matters—now that’s beautiful.

And you’ll take it.

You don’t mind at all.
