Transformed

 
 
 dream-shopping
 for wavy hair
 alabaster skin
 I shut my eyes,
 await transformation
 
 eyes quickly darting away
 like those of a stranger
 bring home reality
 of non-recognition
 “Can’t you see my soul?” I cry
 
 but I worked so hard
 to hide behind
 layers and filters…..
 he likes my blue eyes
 but calls me by a  different name..

  1. Love these lines;

    eyes quickly darting away
    like those of a stranger
    bring home reality
    of non-recognition
    “Can’t you see my soul?” I cry
    I really like your take on this image. Thanks a lot for joining in
