Beauty

Drenched in pearls

Dressed in velvet

With a head full of curls

And a constricting corset

So much done for beauty

It's all that matters to you

But it doesn't make me happy

It only makes you

What do you expect

When you walk onto the floor

Is it respect

Or do you want more

Do you want all the attention

From everyone here

Do you have an expectation

For everyone to care

Why must we care about beauty

When it's the inside that matters

Is it because of the feeling of being pretty

Or the hope of having flatterers
