I once read in a book
That pale white skin is considered beauty in Japan.
Beautiful geishas with their white skin and dark hair
Their beautiful red lips.
I once read in a book
That there is a style of dark tanned girls bleach blonde hair in Japan.
Stylish Ganguro with their Cali girl skin, hair, and clothes
Their sparkly rhinestone eyes.
She is a beautiful maiko...
Traditional in all ways..
Her shining hair and beautiful grace.
She studies hard to be a geisha.
And I am a rebel
No where near traditional...
I am a neon rainbow of sparkles and charms.
I am a Ganguro looked down upon.
And then I saw her on the street.
Not one for Geishas...
But she...she caught my eye.
Gorgeous grey eyes and a pink yukata.
I must know her immediatly.
I forget what I am doing and follow her on the train
Talking to her is forbidden but I can't help it.
"Hello my beauty" i say.
