Jeans to Jewels

I traded in my jeans for a pair of high heels and jewelry to last a whole lifetime. I wanted to be her so that I could fill a space inside myself.

She wanted my jeans and tees life while I wanted her glamorous one. Together we lived a parallel life, only she was downgrading and I was upgrading.

It was sheer paradise until I became miserable and longed for my old life. Yes, I was happy to be in the lap of luxury, but I felt that my place was with me.

So I traded it all back and lived happily ever after.

The heaviness I feel on my legs causes me to shriek. “Why must you torture me?” I say frantic for an answer. “Because, I enjoy this game my dear.” She was out of control now showing up in my dreams and waking life. What must I do to get rid of such an entity? It frightens me that she is me.
