Smear it on your ugly face.

You’re all so beautiful.
I love you.
I love your face

These Beauties – The Chito World
THESE BEAUTIES
The girls in my life, are poetry,
Endless lines of rhymes,
That tell of beautiful stories,
Skin tone, amazing,
Reflects the tone of poems,
That tell of heroes,
Who left their spears,
To lift fallen enemies.
The girls in my life,
A species rare, but not extinct,
Characteristics, distinct,
And like wine, ripe,
Beautiful with age.
The girls in my life,
Are music to the ears,
Their laughter, a resonating echo,
That resounds in the dark lonely moments,
Soothing balm to the heart,
Their hearts, are fountains of joy,
Like the sunrise, they are beautiful,
And like the sunset, calm and peaceful.
The girls in my life,
Are sisters and friends,
They love, passionately,
And care, deeply,
They are a blessing,
They are gems, gifts,
They are the best.

Seafoam – Sharon C Cowdery
i’ve been gentle
i’ve been the moon
in silence and modesty
i want to burn
i want to sing the sun
rather than mourn it
i want my thoughts to race,
my words to shout,
and my actions to dance
i want to be radiant
i want to be “too much”
rather than “not enough”
i want to become
who i was always meant to be
the soft glisten of sea foam
that heals the wounds of summer heat
i refuse to continue
stuffing my throat with pillows
to restrain myself for your benefit
i am the over-analyzing drama queen
i am the altruistic, romantic psychopath
and i am far, far too much
