Best Poems Written by Sierra Perez

Gloss

Peach colored lips but rose colored tears
Red apple cheeks but cherry colored fears

She painted her face
One stroke, two strokes, three strokes, four
A need to feel perfect was felt deep in her core

Cinnamon colored eyes but amber insecurities
A frosty glow on her nose to hide her impurities

She hid behind her gloss, her luster, her shine
But monsters in chains were still held captive inside
