She Use To Be Rae

From what she was in high school to what she is right now Some may consider a phenomenon while other marvel how I remember the face of the cool cool girl in the class before me Vanilla chocolate was her flavor a favorite for sure I've seen Though thirty years has past there was still something to see She was the woman I always knew from a child the woman with ageless beauty You know the color of her lips and the mascara around her eyes you know the shape of her cheek bones her boney fingers and perfect smile There is a beauty that we call elegant often found on wedding days but rarely doe's this elegance grace our wrinkles and grays Yet I still wondered where she came from this woman of grey delight Always high maintainence always someone's wife But how shall I describe her this woman that I know The immortal beauty that took others places Others that were there before she showed Destiny is a force that cannot be stopped The place where she is that awe and shocked time is a blessing depending on how it's spent But beauty is a lesson testing the bearer and the one to whom beauty was sent Though I speak of thousands of women there is one that looks the best The queen of all the goddesses for whom there is no contest The woman I see is timeless she hasn't always been the rage But now that she's past fifty she wears the beauty of that age But looking past the beauty is the life you may not see The horrors of real life hidden by ones fantasies When makeup is mostly for mirrors and not the world outside Beauty is only a mask and compliments sooth the pride The shell of forbidden beauty hidden by an unattainable goal And yet this untamed beauty may posess a lonely soul And life may hold larger things than we could ever imagine But what can be more beautiful than this wonderful distraction.
