Vanity

Am I beautiful
Even if you’re the only one who says so
Am I loved if
You are the only one who loves me
Am I good enough if
Only you should tell me that I’m good
Is it vanity
Or did you make me to long to be
Lovely and pleasing to You
Is it everything
I detest about the world and its
Fleeting beauty and distorted Truth
Am I beautiful
Even if the mirror should say I’m ugly
Am I loved if
I don’t even love me
Am I good enough
If you should say I’m good, but you only
Is it vanity
Or did you make me to long to be
Lovely and pleasing to You
Is it everything
I detest about the world and its
Fleeting beauty and distorted Truth
Is it fantasy
Or did you make me to long to be
Holy and perfect in You
Is it everything
I detest about the world and how it’s
Nothing, nothing like You
