A flowing garment, a shapeless figure
None would know the gems hidden
Her beauty shines from all within.

A humble presence, a lowered gaze
None could tell the secrets held
In wondering times between her eyes.

They wondered why she covered full
The ignorance upon their face
Made them think she was oppressed.

She smiled in silence without a word
And walked away without a glance
"I'll leave them wondering till time ceases."

The greatest things in life stay hidden
Well preserved diamonds and pearls
And she's just one among them all.

None would like their gems tainted
None would want their loves painted
By lips and eyes that give no meaning

Lustful eyes could glance no more
The viewers mind would judge no more
For her confidence had rocked the world.

"I love myself than diamonds rare
My God had placed a fort in here
Favoring me with honor whole."

"No man dares to pass me near
I lack nothing in the world I live
My strength stems from the God I believe."

"If beauty and brains, I got them all
To walk with class I do them all
So why should I succumb to madness."

"Of a world that cover no shame
Given to lust and prideful walks
Along the path of a well known abyss."
