intelligence

When you are asked What you look for You say eyes And a smile And overall beauty Like most of the guys So my endless nights of studying And attention I pay everyday To further become a more intelligent being And the positive thoughts I cram Into my brain To have a beautiful personalty And the millions of words I tie together to form A meaningful poem are nothing So maybe thats why We spend countless hours Just finding what perfect shade Of lipstick brings out our smile And pointless times Fixing our hair And precious seconds Trying to excentuate our eyes And thousands of dollars Of metal and wire To straighten our smiles and maybe thats why I put down my books And picked up the makeup But I've slowly returned To the books Because Beauty without Intelligence Is like a masterpiece On a napkin
