Cover Up

Folder: 
Extended Metaphors

There is no concealer

That can cover up

The imperfections

In your heart.



You cannot change

The appearance

Of a fractured soul

Nor blend in the hues

Of tarred heart.



Instead, you must

Look into the mirror

And see your flaws

And try to fix them.



There are no enhancers,

Emphasizers, or powders

That will hide what

Needs to be revealed

For health reasons.
