Beauty

Location

What do you look like? Where are you?

How do I know it's you? Did I do it right?

When do I show you off? Who do I show you off to?

 

If beauty is fleeting why do I care about you so much?

If you don't really matter why do I put in the effort?

If you mean  nothing why on to you do I clutch?

 

Do you look like the models that I try to be?

Or do you look like Mother Teresa's heart truely?

Do you purposefully try to  mean everything to me?

 

Why do I live to hear people tell me I am  you?

Why do I buy all of these products in the search for my Lovely?

Why after all of it do I feel blue?

 

How can I care so much about you and I don't even know who you are?

How can someone I love make me feel so lost?

How do I love someone who pushes me so far?

 

What do you look like? Where are you?

How do I know it's you? Did I do it right?

When do I show you off? Who do I show you off to?
