Making Up


Making up a person

Creating a fairy or an angel

Or a demon, an animal

Using only a person and some paints

It isn't just to cover up who they are

Make-up creates a whole new being

With every stroke of color on their skin

Brings a whole new creature

A whole new world

Adding a frighteningly beautiful piece to a film

Or adding blush to a bride

An art and a passion

My biggest dream

Becoming a make-up artist
