Pretty Myself Up

Spent 2 hours on this here hair of mine

PERFECT.....Not a hair out of place

Curly long lashes, blush, liner, and lipstick

accentuating the contours of my face

Oh... then there is the baddest outfit money can buy

and yes shoes to match.... with heels so high

"Man" you can't tell me I ain't fine

Yea I see you lookin, wishing I would call you mine.

Pretty on the surface.....LOOK DEEPER

But this is just the outer me

the shell I make up and cloth.

My inside is what you cannot see

for it is not that bold.

The inner me likes to lounge around in my pj's

and eat chips as crumbs hit my lap

Leaving them there, asleep I fall

ZZZZ!!!! A much needed nap.

I dream freely and comfortably, looking different from head to toe

Just a cute lil outfit, and a sexy sassy fro.

This is the real me, you just don't know

All natural face

clear of stores make-up and shine

my profile without these extras

makes me more beautiful and divine.

My heart and soul

caring loving and kind

well seen by others, when given the time

So to pretty myself up

sure I dress up the outer me

but my real beauty lies deeper

only with your heart you will see.

PRAYER, MEDITATION AND

A WARM LOVING SOUL

Is how I pretty myself up daily.
