This is Me.
August 8, 2010
This is Me.
I layer the shadows,
yellows, greens, and browns.
Today I shall be Tinkerbell,
a magical pixie fairy.
Though my feet are planted,
firmly on the ground.
One swipe of a brush,
and I'm above the clouds.
I sparkle my hair,
and dazzle my cheeks.
I'm Cinderella,
despite no ball for me.
I can be anyone-
I'm a variety of colors.
I take many forms,
never know who'll be.
But beneath all the make up,
that sparkle and polish-
is the best thing to be;
naturally, this is me.
