Ageless beauty
If beauty's true it does not fade
but on the contrary increases
with maturity and age,
and wrinkles can not spoil it.
You are an example
of this strange phenomenon
of love and beauty only growing
with the years in depth and in attraction,
although we do not grow younger
but instead increase in timelessness.
That is perhaps the essence of true beauty,
that which never fades but instead increases only,
like a flower never dying
but expanding like a tree
to ever grow more firm and lovely to never die;
for that is the true mark of beauty:
she can never die.
