The mirror relects satisfaction
but the subject questions its truth.
A twisted hemp necklace lounges over the collarbone
and the exotic pink bead stands boldly in the center.
The light glints off the newly peirced ears; tiny gold studs add 3mm of flare to an empty area on either side.
Hair was pulled back earlier, in a habitious manner, without much thought. After a few hours of life, the loose strands begin to party, and the raggle taggle look that she loves oh so much has taken form. It's the perfect time between two showers: a natural smooth blonde shine, but not an oil drop past silk.
The ribbed tank top fits nicely around the tanned shoulders and shaped bra, and the slacks ride low on those hips.

So she wonders:
if she were robbed
of everything
that wasn't her's to begin with,
what would she have left?
If she were bare,
would she still see the beauty?

Welcome to Passions. I really liked your write. I like how your mind works.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Excellent first post! Welcome to pip

If I could fall asleep tonight
you know I’d dream of you
and wake up wondering
why my heart is so cold

This show's some serious thought here.  I loved the thought's this conveys.  Would any of us see ourselves as beautiful if we we're stripped of our facade and our true selves laid bare?  I'd like to think so, but I really don't know. Truly excellent first post!

This part his home,,,how many people could face the world without persona on? Good stuff.

welcome to PIP talk

If home is where the heart is,,,,,I guess the corner bar is where the mind wanders off to
