Audrey Heller - Vanity

Vanity, be thy name! Ever since I <br />can remember, I've always been <br />vain. It takes work, trying to keep <br />your image, like you just stepped <br />out of a book. To me, that's the <br />way, I had to look. Imagine, never <br />going outside, before your makeup <br />is on your face. At the same time, <br />making sure every strand of hair, <br />is in it's place. The clothes you <br />wear, have to be coordinated, <br />down to your shoes and purse. It's <br />certainly not a blessing, it's actually <br />a curse. I only wish, I could stop <br />paying attention, to the way I look, <br />not bother, or care. But knowing me, <br />that can never be. My vanity, will <br />forever, be there!<br /><br />Audrey Heller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/vanity-19/
