Beautiful Faces

Under the bright lights and big labels,
beautiful people hide their flaws.
Different colours mask their faces,
of the thousands lines that speak of war.

Beauty becomes their main attraction
and smile as the tool of communication.
Some are true affection
while others relish in superfiction.

A beautiful job as it seems,
the true pains all lie within.
But vanity is every man's dream
pursued early since we can think.

Contrast with the kids running around,
with tear-scarred faces and naughty grins.
Beauty seems to not lie with the standardized perfect model
but in the genuine happiness innocence brings.
