I wrote this way back and it describes me quite well. yeah i might have been suffering with a serious bout of depression when i wrote this but i think its one of the best i've ever wrote. If you don't agree..well i really didn't ask you to..
Mack, Loreal, maybeline, cover girl
Cosmetics for the average woman
Put on every morning, wiped off every night.
I wear my make up the same way
But it does not come in the form of lipsticks and eyeliner
But in the form of deception and denial
The method of application is similar
My compact is filled with fraudulent claims
I conceal my grief ridden eyes with the shade of contentment
I cover my dark despondent circles with the color of sanguinity
I paint my lips with the fabrication of hope and delight
I plaster my depressed cheeks with the foundation of elation and amusement
My carefully constructed face is finally sealed with an injection of an impenetrable Botox that torrents the illusion of confidence and hardens my hollow shell
Unlike everyone else's makeup
Mine does not wash off
Because the biggest person I am trying to deceive is myself
I no longer recognize my original face
