CTT: Labels

I am labels

I was born and labelled as my parents daughter

In minutes I was labelled with my religion,my stars, my relatives

Over the years the labels increased

Some labels fell off

Some were ripped that left a mark on me

While some just got into my skin and might stay for life

I am a set of labels for life

So, are everyone else

This post is inspired by one line on Twitter by someone who's name I don't remember anymore

CTT: Reflections

She stood in front of the mirror and saw the reflection of her eyes

So much hurt, in there lies

She put black kohl in one eye and looked up that mirror again
While one eye looked happy, the other reflected her pain

She carefully covered the bruises under her eye

The thoughts of it only made her cry

She applied a crimson red lipstick, for it hid the bloodied red scar

Her smile seems to be lost very far

To the world, she looked happy & shiny as a star

Somewhere deep down happy is the only emotion that her heart yearned for
