THE WOMAN IN THE IRON CAST 2

DECEMBER 

Hello journal, today I have a lot to tell you. 
 I really have so much to say.

I started a new diet a month ago. 

It is called Dr Slim diet. 

Pretty obvious, huh. 

That's my life now. 

A life that consists of vegetables, fruits, powder and eggs coming together for the sole purpose of purging my soul of its heaviness.

Whew... The depth...

Seriously, the concotion that has become my daily bread has the significant taste of acid. 

The acid makes me smile bitterly whenever my tongue tastes it's horror.

Maybe the reason I have become addicted to it is because it's puke color and sour taste reminds me of my reality.

The reality I live is to please all who think my mould is offensive.

They say that the shape of my silhouette makes shadows endless. 

They say that my cheeks look like heavy burdens that have not been cast down.

They say that my feet could out stomp an elephant's tirade.

They say that 'perfect' is a place I will never see, like Moses, I will imagine if the milk and honey flow in tandem but I will never see their blend.

They speak and speak with speech sharp like daggers and bullets.

Why do I even bother????

I heard, not from them, that I was made from thoughts as beautiful as sunrise,
Carved from hands that coloured the Rainbow,
Formed from the image that blinks twinkles into stars.

It sounds too good to be true.

Gotta go now.

Ode to the voice inside my ❤️ Heart.

 I heard you before I knew my name. My cries knew your soothing and my laughter knew your jokes You spoke to me before my mother's voice...
