Conception of Beauty


Beauty is only one thing in today's world

For the 30 year old who considers plastic surgery

For the teenaged girl who aspires to look like a photoshopped picture

For the man who's been told he's too scrowny with a needle placed in his right hand

Beauty is how one looks

It is no longer the innocence of a child

It is no longer a couple who falls in love

It is no longer how lovely someone really is

Beauty is not beautiful at all

But this shouldn't continue

The insecurities

The pain and torture

The truth should be seen and accepted by all people

Beauty is an altered conception

And the conception of true beauty needs to come back to our generations

Change the way the world see's beauty

Bring true beauty back again
