White is for her
The golden child
Little sister
Winner of prizes
And hearts
Successful
Beautiful
And blonde
She wears it
Boldly
Unapologetically
Entitled
Like it’s a birth right
A shade reserved for the chosen ones.
The privileged
And tanned
In Designer attire
Lovingly constructed from the finest cotton
Pure as snow
She smiles
At the world
At life
In white
Black is for me
The lost sheep
The other one
Collector of fails
And trouble
Damaged
Plain
And brunette
I wear it
Naturally
With remorse
Like a suit of armour
A shade delegated to the damaged ones.
The defective
And pale
In bargain basics
Mass produced human misery
Dark as Midnight oil
I hide
From the world
From life
In black

Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
