Routine
April 18, 2015
4:30am
The alarm sounds
It blares a sound so disgusting it gives me goosbumps
the endless routine begins
I force myself out of bed
My feet hit the cold floor
I make my way to the bathroom
I shower
5:00am
I start my makeup
The mask I wear everyday
This is how I hide
6:00am
I straighten my already straight hair
In the endless struggle for perfection
7:00am
Vanity and insecurity scream as I walk out the door
I go through the day exhausted..
11:00pm
I finally finish all my work
I go to bed
4:30am
Repeat.
