Make up Face.

by Asingletear   Sep 25, 2006


Looking in to the mirror
She stares at her blank face
The dark marks under her blotchy eyes
She stares at the reflexion
Her eyes dark and cold
Her skin red from the tears.

She reaches for the foundation
Piling it on to cover her up
Hiding the tear stains and the black marks
She then reaches for the mascara
Gliding the brush slowly over her painful lashes
She then adds the blusher to make her look alive.

When she has finished she stares back at the expressionless face
Now covered up she can face the world for another day,

    Nice. its very descriptive, which is cool. it could do wtih a bit more poem-ish-ness, but it gets a msg across to the reader, which is what poetry is really all about. good job

    This poem is really good. It's not very rythm-y, but the emotions carry it through. I hope to read more from you soon ;)
