Natural Form

Our society nowadays
Is populated with masks
That we wear from
Day to day.
We are too comfortable
With wearing mascara and
Putting the perfect filter
On our selfies,
That we do not know how
To embrace our natural beauty.
This all sounds very familiar to you,
Or else you’re lying.
We'e all done it,
But is this a liable excuse for continuing
To plaster our faces with cover-up
And call it 'beautiful'?
I don't know about you,
But I feel like I am my best
When I'm in my pajama pants
With a cup of tea
And a bad hair-do.
With no cosmetics covering my
Everlasting freckles,
And my eyelashes mascara-free.
My eyes buried in a poetry book,
And my legs covered by my bedsheets.
Because that's when who I truly am
Is revealed.
