Princess Of Illusion

It is what it is, no more no less.

Detox the botox

Cause you are not fooling anyone,

Especially yourself

When you look in the mirror

That won’t lie to you

And see no age or emotion

On your face.

 

I know you are no wicked witch,

Just led astray

By the media’s trick of light.

 

It is okay you're not Snow White,

So put that poisonous apple down

And be the natural beauty

God intended you to be,

Instead of sleeping your life away…

 

Believe me when I say

You don’t have to be a princess

To feel like a million bucks,

Just one prince who feels rich

With you in his arms.

Such a wonderful poem. It is very hard to age with grace in this society. It's nice to see those who appreciate that natural beauty that comes from wisdom and age. You've penned wise words here.

It is so hard for some people to admit that they are getting older.They subject themselves to all manner of things in the hope that it will fend off age.Far as I know it never does.Really great pen Dale the Cowboy :)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so much for the review and your insight.

[Vidya Bacchus]

You are welcome :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this is so good, and such a pertinent theme...so much work done does not make one look better or really feel better inside...we need to grow old gracefully, naturally...beauty is in the flaws that come...

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

You are so right, I appreciate the wisdom you expressed.

Bravo! You have shared a wonderful message! I live in Southern California - Orange County - yes right around the corner from the Orange County Housewives..home of the plastic people..where every woman wishes to be married to a plastic surgeon! It can get pretty darn scary when no one ages...LOL....

Truth is though - I completely believe in plastic surgery and botox in moderation and only if it makes you feel better about yourself. The problem is - I think it may have crack in it - because it seems to be addicting and no one seems to stop with one treatment...before you know it - Plastic People. ...

Amen, brother, women do this for? I don't know. Men do it to, but it is just so pointless and artificial. Anyway, great, truthful write.
