makeup caked on as
This
day turns to night.


the pressure
Is
on, to get all the guys

put on
The
skin-tight dress


show everyone the
Definition
of pretty


be the center
Of
attention.


no. forget that. look at yourself.
your twinkling eyes. your shining smile.
your radiating confidence and joy.

this is the definition of
Beauty

Wow! This is amazing! I like the line spacing and bolded words that you used because it really adds to the tone and mood of the poem, really making it "pop" and special. It also shows your wonderful beauty of the poem. This is a great idea that you have, beautiful. I like your ideas and how you say that everyone is beautiful no matter how they are and what they look like. Amazing job and thumbs up! Please keep writing, I'd like to see more, and God bless! :)
