Foundation goes on smoothly To hide the wrinkly frown And then a bit of concealor Hiding truth that I'm down Next a little eye-liner To brighten up the white Add a smudge of eye-shadow To keep me through the night Now a dab of blush Adding color to my face A bit of lip-liner To keep my smile in place Just a smidgen of glue On the tear-drop by my eye It's made of glass Since I've forgotten how to cry A touch of mascara I don't need very much The smoothness of lipstick Adds the final touch Now my mask is ready The world can clearly see Happiness that I portray Though it's not really me. < !signature--> With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. [This message has been edited by Broken_Winged_Angel (edited 12-07-2000).] |

so that's what women do so long in the bathroom..lol..this reminds me of a piece I did some time back .(not with makeup)... the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Its true how we can hide behind a masck and show are best smile even when we realy want a shoulder to cry on. Maykup can hide so much. I am adding this one to my library, I realy want my sis to see it. Beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it’s the middle that counts. |

Since I've forgotten how to cry crying is healing, believe it or not, it washes you. It is good for you. Please don't forget to cry. btw, I loved your poem and thank goodness for make-up Maree "If my words could blanket the skies and fill every corner and crevice of this earth, still this won't be enough" "Maree Russo" |

This is an interesting twist on the uses of make-up to hide who/what we really are. Nice write, Angel. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |
