Beauty
by: writewithpurpose
She hides her beauty
Covering it with make-up
Ruining all the imperfect perfection that lies on her face.
She covers her flaws
Thinking they will never be seen
But in the end when the make-up must come off
What does she see?
Ugliness seeping through with each wipe.
Her flaws taking over her face once again.
Unhidden and exposed.
Manipulated and hypnotized by the media
She goes to bed at night
Wishing to look like something else
Because the media makes her think
That her reflection is such a fright.
