This world demands

The world demands perfection and to be new 
So many seek your flesh, wishing to own you
But I see beauty inside in an imprisoned soul
You are fleeing, from those who want control
The world can't have you, you're spirit is free
Know if I can't have you either, I'd long to be
One you call out for, one you know is there
For your spirit is beautiful, your flesh is fair
You are unique, perfect, but still you run
And to say I love you, I wouldn't dare
It'd be true, but it wouldn't be heard
Over the din of men chasing your attention
