Deep Inside

a poem by Deeksha Marur

There’s a pretty girl hidden deep inside of me
That refuses to come undone,
There’s a hidden face deep inside of me
That tries come undone, but can’t
There’s a loving beauty hidden deep inside of me
That’s deep inside… coming undone

There’s a layer of fat on top which covers me up
That’s begun to come undone
There’s a layer of flab inside of me that refuses to let my beauty out…
There’s a layer protecting the beautiful me…
That’s deep inside of me.

Deep inside, that’s what lies within me,
Deep inside, that’s what lies under my skin
Deep inside of me, there’s a new beautiful me
Deep inside of me, there’s a pretty face coming undone
Deep inside of me, awaits the new me

Deep inside…
That’s where the real me lies,
Deep inside…
That’s where the beauty lies within,
Deep inside…
That’s where the prettiness comes undone
Deep inside…
That’s where I’ll always be…
