Natural Beauty

Fri, 02/13/2015 - 22:12 -- lilyia

These days, people try to shroud themselves in a color

They distort their faces so much that they think they look like a million dollars

Whatever happened to natural beauty?

Taking pride in your face and not making yourself look all tutti-fruity

Everyone has beauty in their face

And it’s something that they need to embrace

Natural hair is awesome

When it moves around your head like a bunch of blossoms

Embrace those freckles!

They really are something special

Even those wrinkles by your eyes

And the way they crinkle when you eat your fries

Girls and boys, don’t get distressed by your features

You look nothing like a nasty creature

So please, take those natural snaps

I promise you, it isn’t a trap.
