Truth Hurts

Beauty excuses
Many abuses
The visual wins
No matter the spin
Crimes of fiction
Addiction
Are quickly dismissed
With the promise of a tryst
Lovely
Fantasy
Her flesh is payment
For costly arguments
Admission
Decision
A girl that looks good can be ugly inside
Needing more--always dissatisfied
He provides and forgives
She takes, letting him live

I've always said, if I believed in reincarnation, I would want to come back as a slammingly fine woman (this doesn't imply that I want to have sex with a man). Them looks just get you over, but as you've shown, at a cost.

Sometimes the price of beauty is way to high. Beautiful on the outside and miserable on the inside. If only this world could look beyond the outer shell.

Hey, Rich--I've always said that I wanted to come back as a MAN!!!

A woman like yourself gets the benefit of being both. You have the ability to attract and the mind to conquer.

i'on dun kno' about that rich...

beautiful, with the wrong "inter-self" personal feelings can be deadly, meaning "low self-esteem" from being "used" by their beauty and craving for attention as an adult after being put on a pedestal by many as a child.

makes you wonder why "good girls like bad guys"
