Roses


Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. 

That's society

That's life

Where are we now? 

Make up

Is this beauty? 

Chocolates 

Roses

 Are they cliche? 

Where we going? 

What are we doing? 

Everyday a step closer to manikins 

Everyday a step closer to plastic

It is our time to take a step backward

Look around, smell the roses

See the true beauty

Realize that to be beautiful, you must be the natural you

Goodbye Facebook, Goodbye Instagram, Goodbye Twitter 

It is time to truly enjoy life
