The Insecure Woman

I’m standing on the platform, eagerly waiting for the F-train to arrive. The service is usually frequent, but today there is a delay. Bored and impatient, I pace back and forth as I gaze at the filthy ground. My attention is grasped by the shoes of a lady that strolls pass me. “Oooh, I wanted those!” I saw them on Fifth Avenue; black leather heels adorned with a gleaming silver buckle, $200. Gradually, I look up to see the face of the owner. She possesses a natural beauty, but she looks fatigued. Her face is pale, so light, that her white collared shirt is practically close to her skin tone. Dark bags hang from under her eyes.

I whispered under my breath: “That’s a whole lot of makeup she’s putting on over there.” I look around and find that everyones’ attention is focused on the woman. She finished her eyes with black mascara, first on the top eyelashes, and than strangely, on the bottom. Is that even possible? The lady’s lips were next. Her lips are full and voluptuous, yet extremely parched. Before applying her lip gloss, she runs chapstick all over her dry mouth. Over the lip balm, she glosses her lips with a pinkish mauve color.
