She's the Star
March 6, 2018
She wakes up in the morning
Getting ready to be
The star of her own movie
Washing off reality
Pinning back her imperfections
Painting a new face
Fixing her concealing makeup
Fussing over the proper clothes
Adorning and grooming herself with care
She is perfectly prepared
To shine
On the stage in the spotlight
Acting for the universe
Rehearsing each plot
Reading lines with perfection
She falls asleep at night
Thinking about what the audience
Criticized about her performance
