Makeup Masks

Streaming black
Mascara tears
Blood-like stains
Lipstick smears

Bruise-blue smudges
Painted eyes
Streaked skin
Foundation lies

Smell in a bottle
Sickly sweet
Knife sharp heels
On your feet

Bottled faces
In a row
Pretty dolls
All on show

Natural looks
Hidden away
Makeup masks
To face the day
