Illusions of beauty
August 21, 2018
No amount of contemptment
Can mask the hurt and the pain
I hate
That I cannot tear through my skin as I could a piece of paper.
Ink does not bring justice to discomfort.
Thoughts cannot create joy
As nor a rock could create love
Happiness; sadness; envy; fear; anger; disgust;
They are all illusions.
Tricks of the mind
That normally don't last
Self worth is just fiction
You cannot price perfection.
Body image is cloudy
Since it is impossible to see the face of God.
You are a splitting image of beauty.
