True beauty

Is there such a thing as natural beauty?

A four year old
Looks through a magazine
She peers down at a tall boney model with long bleached hair
I want to look like her someday she bellows
Braces
Makeup
Colored Contacts
Hair Extensions
The four year old is now seventeen
Her brown eyes are covered over by green contacts
Her freckles disappear underneath thick cover up.
Her crooked buck teeth filed down and straight
Her sweet plump face is sunken in and boney
Is there such a thing as natural beauty?
