Faces

3948790-blue-eye-with-silver-mask

I healed myself with pink eyeshadow
Dressed my wounds in a rosy rouge
A mask of beauty to fool the fools
Captive behind this porcelain masquerade
A parade of faces I wear from day to day
Playing multiple roles in an unforgiving world
How do I remember which me you prefer
When you do not even look to see who I am today
I healed myself with silver eyeshadow
Dressed myself in a tin foil veil
Not one of you noticed the tears
But everyone looked at themselves in my wake
