Distracted beauty
Train rides have never felt so treacherous and draining. I have never gotten so much attention in my life. Unwanted attention to be more exact. For whatever reason, the ringworms that were cured 1 month ago came back to my face for an endearing revisit. Maybe she wants to mark her territory on my face again. No one will look good or the least normal with huge red patches on the cheeks. Not to mention the occassional spur of greenish-yellow pus beneath queuing to explode. I admit i am not emotionally strong enough to deal with such a drastic change in my appearance. It does not feel good to be stared upon when you walk on the street. It does not feel good to have such a low self confidence that you have to back face the crowd during lunch hour.
I do not need a mask to hide behind.
I need some true confidence.
