Cover Up Girl He kindly didn’t mention the fact that I was late One look at me, he knew the reason Let me take my time with the wardrobe change On the biggest shoot of the season The makeup girl saw me try not to wince As she applied the foundation Complementing me on my features Paint applied with heavier application They assured me I was beautiful But I know air brushing was in store I smiled, and laughed, did my best pout And tried to give a little more At the end of the day, when exhaustion was high My photographer said to me I was a trooper, I never complained Alone in my misery But as we finished, and he began to pack I thought I heard him say “If I ever see that beast with her, I’ll be sure to make him pay” Weeks later the results were in You couldn’t even see In the glamour photos we had done On that day my husband beat me. ------------------ For sometimes when the Darkness falls, we must surrender, take what is ours, and give what we can, and always remember love is somewhere waiting... |
