The Second Layer

As the unwanted mask stares back at the reflection
She tells it that it looks better
and that all her insecurties are concealed under
that was the foundation of her life
all the layes of trouble started to show through
She notices that all this is fake
"fake as hell" all the girls would say
all the irony is causing her to blush
She sweeps on her powder to lock it all in, like a chain being locked on a vault
before she leaves,
she makes sure all the imperfecions are concealed under the fair
Now looking back at her incandecent twin
she realizes when the chain on the vault is cracked,
her security is gone
when her foundation is broken
her walls come tumbling down
and when all her concealed insecurities are open
nothing is left but the flawless beauty she finally saw.
