Pretty Myself Up

Sun, 12/15/2013 - 16:07 -- TamaraD

Spent 2 hours  on this here hair of mine

PERFECT...... not a hair out of place.

Curly long lashes, blush,liner, and lipstick

accentuating the contours of my face.

Oh... then there is the baddest outfit money can buy

and yes shoes to match....with heels so high.

"Man" you can't tell me I ain't fine

Yea I see you lookin wishin I would call you mine.

Pretty on the surface..... LOOK DEEPER

But this is just the outer me

the shell I make up and cloth

My inside is what you can not see

for it is not that bold.

The inner me likes to lounge around in  my pj's

and eat chips as crumbs hit my lap.

Leaving  them there, asleep I fall

ZZZZZZZ!!!!!! a much needed nap.

I dream freely and comfortably, looking different from head to toe.

Just a cute lil outfit, and a sexy, sassy fro.

This is the real me you just don't know.

All natural face

clear of stores make up and shine.

my profile without these extra's

makes me more beautiful and divine.

My heart and soul

caring loving and kind.

Well seen by others when given the time

So to pretty myself up

Sure... I dress up the outer me

but my real beauty lies  deeper

only with your heart you will see.

PRAYER, MEDITATION AND

A WARM LOVING SOUL

Is how I pretty myself up daily.
