The Mask

You start with a shower
(To wash off yesterday)

Then you take a long look in the mirror
(This is decision time)

Then you slowly start putting on the mask

First…the make-up
(For staying strong)

Then…the dress, the high heels and the stockings
(For confidence)

And as the last thing…you put on a smile
(Let the show begin!)

Thank you!

I realised this was my 100th post.

And i promise this was the last of the series of "sad posts". The weather is getting better and good things will start to happen. It's time to kill the winter and the bad mood!
