This space I stay
Never seeming to feel right
Its reflection never what is wanted
An image outside of the expectedThe mirror the enemy
The view portrayed failing
Society's standardsPainting to cover what's really there
Painting to cover the flaws seen
To create and image of beautyNow the reflection shows
An image of fraud
For what is shown was not there before
Now it is but a painted smile
Along with a painted maskFor society wants to see
The beauty not the beast
That hides beneath.
