A Beautiful Facade
October 9, 2016
Crushed beneath the shadow
Of a high heeled shoe
Bitter gorgeous girls weep
Oh the sweet taste of admiration
Ugly woman you are a diamond
For love is beauty, not pain
That light is not the sun you see
But camera's flashing
Why do you worship T.V.?
You will never be like her
Desire toys with you
You don’t know what you want
You are not like them
You are better
A petal of a daisy
A goddess
