i gaze at my reflection

brown skin decorated with pimples,

large chocolatey eyes hiding a world of pain,

a long, bony nose and chap, thin lips,

untamed onyx hair flowing to the waist,

a skinny, tall frame swaying with wind's gentle touch,

to most it looks unattractive,

but to me,

i look gorgeous

I am in two of the high risk groups for this pandemic depending on which news source you are following. There are many older people that go the my church. I have asked after their health. Stopped having one drive me to the market. I pray we are all going to survive. Protecting others and ourselves.
