Blonde and Blonder

False nails

Fake tan
Synthetic hair, 
Blonde, 
As blonde can be, 

Your youthful visage
Nothing more than a paper mask,
Concealing the truth, 
Hiding the ugly within, 

Nothing natural,
Nothing real,
Nothing genuine under that skin, 
Until, 
You are denied what you seek, 
When you relenquish who is truly you, 

Sour,
Cold,
Calluos, 
An unjustifiable sense of self-importance,

You are both one in the same,
Nothing interesting, 
Nothing special,
Nothing unique,
Bland, 
As bland can be.
