Vanity
Vanity is but the easiest prey
Consumed by what did you say
Don't you think I am pretty
Late night affirmation of the kitty
Seeking compliment in your own reflection
The pain to suffer rejection
Once was the look of Aphrodite
Hidden in the darkness of the night
Coiffured hair and red ties
Seeking admiration behind the eyes
Using praise as mans to and end
The narcissist always bends
The mere reflection of the silhouette
Their image they never regret
