power of makeup
the brushes glide against my skin
and paint a new face within
and the colours emphasize my base
and leave me with no hate
and the rouge lightens up my smile
and makes it stay a while
with this new face i have new space
to make my happiness shine from within
this art destroys my doubt
and blurs the imperfections
while showing who i am
lancome and too faced
connect me to find true joy
joy that isn't fake and joy that doesn't destroy
but maybe i can't handle this power to make me
look like a flower and not want to cower
but where there is doubt there is certainty
the certainty that i may be beautiful
