As we grow old, the Beauty steals inward

Entry into the Kennedy Prize 2015 (http://www.kennedyprize.com.au/view-entries/?entry=1029)

"Growing old tarnishes the outward beauty that we have come to recognise in our reflection. With feelings of becoming a prisoner within our ever degrading skin, we grasp at whatever beauty can still be seen beneath the expanding cracks of time, forgetting that our beauty has always been within."
