Makeup & tears

It feels like
Half the time
I wear nice makeup
I end up crying it off

It feels wrong

Holding back tears
Till I'm not with anyone
Till I'm in the bathroom
Or in the dark

Holding back tears
Till I've created content
Finished work
On the business
So that I can
Attract clients
While I still look profesional

It's too put together
I'm too controlled
And yet the makeup
Still isn't enough
To hold back
The tears forever
