Mascara


These days I line my lashes with mascara 

ooh, going girly eh? is the usual reaction I get 

Yes, that’s me…I am all girly, I say


why would a well informed, confident woman laden her eye lashes with soot, turpentine and wax?

why didn’t they ask me that?

I know you would and here’s what I have to say…

I cry these days and I don’t know why 

I don’t know where to draw the line 

Mascara helps!

It draws a line across my face and when I taste soot, I know I should breakaway and I fill my fingertips with the soot and draw a line between the person across the table and I. 

It’s simple, isn’t it?
