Why don't you smile gorgeous?
Won't you just smile for us?
Won't you even look at us?
Vanity, that wonderful sin
Shunning all your kin
For that one great ride
Lust is fine, and greed is mine
Yet you rule the mirror
And it serves your needs
You like what you see
Only it always must be better
Must be made more beautiful
Isn't it ever enough?
To be loved?
To be adored?
Or must you be the queen?
Must you always run the show?
I don't know you anymore
I wish I never did, now
You've ruined all your lives
Got none left now except this empty shell
I hope you like what you've become
Now run and hide from your demons
They'll find you anyway
They will take away your pretty face
Rape your confidence
And ravage all your lofty dreams
Goodbye now, Hello no
Just wave at me
When I walk by
I'll smile and say
What a nice surprise
And turn away to cry
Now leave me be
I'll find a way
I'll survive today
Without my love
Who was taken by Vanity
That awful disease
It consumed you,
And burned you
While ripping me apart
My eyes are sad,
My tears are fresh
And you're not here
You're looking down on me
At least you made it there
I'll see you someday
But for now I think,
I'll wait and watch
And patiently
One day i'll wear a robe
And have a golden crown
Harps will sing
But for now, I think
I'll wait right here
I'll watch the beautiful people
I'll watch them burn and wither
And be dragged down
Some will rise
And some will not
It's all the same
It's all a game
Goodnight my friend
Untill tomorrow's eternity
Das Vidana...

did you writethis?
if you did, then that's extremely long....
if it's not yours, then don't bother post other people's poems, even if you tell people it is theirs. - Report As Spam
