Pretty Colors


---- Pretty Colors----

~mixed with pretty people~

Equal ugly hidden triths no one knows

----Hiding behind----

~our really pretty colors~

Letting no one know about our ugly hidden scars

----Perfect image----

~has to be protected~

because our ugly truths are jumbled messes

----Fake blinds----

~so use every pretty pen~

in your perfectly kept notebook just

----To hide----

~those oh so ugly truths~

Written on your oh so beautiful paper covered in 

----Pretty Colors----
