ones preferences

is this what you want
the perfect image
an unblemished illusions
a veiled figment
of males perception
societies mirage
the flawless women
with skin deep beauty
porcelain complexion
but shallow and cold

am i second best
when you look at me
the ageing features
weathered skin
sagging portions
with my stretch marks
laughter lines
and veracious veins

unrealistic or reality
the two existed
one in mind and magazines
the other before you

i think this is one of my best cause it shows life and society as it is today.....to many woman dont like themself because of societies perception on what the perfect woman should look like.....its a sad thing because others see societies perception as the rule

    Interesting write. I like the two different parts that can come together in the end. Very creative and very well penned.

    Warmest,
