Neeharika Sharma - Inner Self

Many times it comes to my mind that,
Why I' cant be as beautiful as a 'ROSE'
As beautiful as the moonlight
Even though,
We are urchins of the same almighty.
Why has he made some beautiful some not?

One-day god came to me
He said, 'How are you my child? '
I greeted him and asked, 'God, why haven't you made me beautiful? '
He said, 'Who says you are not! '
Some have outer beauty,
Some have inner
And you are full of the second one.
I gave you the inner one
Which will remain with you till you die,
And not the outer one, which ends with the age.
Beauty to me is what I have given to you

To be kind- hearted
To be generous
To be godly, and
To smile and make the world smile with you.

I suddenly woke up in excitement
And from that very day
My life took a drastic change
Every thing seemed so beautiful to me
And realised that what all I have is the reward

Of my own destiny
Of my own fate

He is the judge of our court
Who has showered his blessings on everyone
Some with more, some with less
And from that very moment
I felt that beauty inside me
Leaving me in the process of realising myself.
