Innocence Is Devoured


We are all connected. The smell of chapstick & playdough. Pillsbury Dough Boy has to go. Tomorrow we will make a side trip. Errands & appointments we can skip. The right shade of purple & pink for my lips. Some accessories are necessary. The right heely shoes of styles so few. Straight or wavy long hair. About my appearance I always care. I want to always look my best. Hair, makeup, wardrobe, & all the rest. To age older one day at a time. Youth & my prime is no longer mine. Liquid eyeliner to enhance & make finer. Foundation to even the tone of my facial skin. Mascara for my lashes. Finding clothes that matches. Some eyeshadow for my lids. Revealing jewelry where it's hid. © Harmony Sapphire .
