Description
Just Add GlossIt all falls apart,
Like so much blood-filled water,
Perpetually dripping.
A nik here, a scape there,
Before you know it the scars are choking all the much needed appologies,
Or explainations,
From a tainted mouth.
Just add gloss.
Shine the problem away with removable sentiment.
But it always comes back,
Heavier and with more distain.
Color in the dull spots with sex and violence,
That too is fleeting.
Twice comes the pain of inadequacy,
Not quite good enough.
Just add gloss.
Cover the blemmish that you rubbed raw,
\'Till it bleeds.
The infection casts no shadow with blush on.
And with that mask,
And all the darkness it provides,
You are safe.
And I am exposed.
