Poem by Niya Holland
Lips full, tainted with rouge
Lips pursed, trying to decide what to say, what they should do.
It's not a ready-made attitude, that fullness you see.
These Lips stay closed more often than not. Please believe.
Holding in teeth and tongue, thoughts ready to be made vocal, and set free.
Yet I heard it's a gift to be a lady with lips like these.
They even market products just so others can have full ones like me.
