Floating in the air, They come near me, Telling a different story Of a faraway land. Showing off their colours, They come near me, Telling of how a myriad Can live together.

One thick layer of foundation Hides my lines of worry. But they don't erase the worry. One thick line of kohl Hides my eyes' tear-induced puffiness. But it doesn't erase the tears. One thick swipe of lipstick Hides my drooping lips. But it doesn't erase the sadness. One thick layer of this and that Only [...]
