what's yours?.i'll wait, so show me why you're strongI guess if I were to describe myself, it would be too far gone from what you actually see, right? Our eyes are often clouded, disoriented to the point where we think what we see isn't spectacular, it isn't unique. There is no longer anything brand new to this generation, apparently we've seen it all. As a twenty-three year old, African-American female born in The Desert... that's usually it, that right there is all I have to say until someone interrupts me and thinks they have it all figured out, as if they know what to expect out of my life's story, out of all this. We no longer allow ourselves to feel surprised anymore, and it's sad that we must know all the answers to feel complete. I think it's really sad. This brown skin of mine has soaked up even the harshest rays of sun, with brown eyes that have witnessed things that will forever be new to me. Seeing death stare straight at you has never gotten old, and never will.Everyone expects you to give a short synopsis of your personality without getting to know you first. I could say that I'm a nice person, that I enjoy being around others who don't need to have the same outlook as me. I could even say that I'm rational, I'm not judgemental, I love harder than I hate, I'm patient, caring... but what about the days when I'm not being rational? When I actually do judge someone despite joking or being serious, or when I have days that my patience is running low to the point where I can no longer care? What happens when I'm prideful? Or scared shitless? What if my stubbornness gets the best of me? Days pass and moments run by you causing you to go against every single thing you were for. Would you call me bi-polar then? Or would you then understand that not everything is set in stone?My mother. When I was born in The Desert, I apparently had both parents in my life until my father came home to see our home from work wiped out, my mother slaughtered and only me left to my lonesome. I suppose that's what happens when you owe bandits money and take years to pay it off. While it still took him years to pay it off, it finally got done around the time I was fourteen. It was then my father thought it was best that we found our way to The City. He claimed it would be safer there. It wasn't. At least not for him. My father. He was infected... like many others who have been and will be. Claiming luck was not on his side but honestly, luck had never been on his side.
Either way, he was a brave man... had much more bravery stored in him to boost the morale of hundreds of men. I only wished he would've passed down some of that to me other than his looks. Me. After that, I was alone and learned to make ends meet even while attending school. I used to be a supply runner until I was old enough to get myself through enough schooling to get a "degree" or whatever they're worth being called now. I figured, if I was to help myself become some sort of positive person in this world, why not help people while doing so? My nursing certification didn't fall behind either, and I ended up working under one of the best doctors in The City.
The pay is decent but the lack of a social life and love life have kept me wondering if I even know how flirting works. I found out that laughing and brushing it off as sarcasm isn't always the way to go. Apparently men take offense to that..so show me where you fit, so show me where you fitWhile I always thought about moving back to The Desert, I believe Axios needs me more, honestly The City needs a lot more than just me. But until then, long nights at the hospital is where I find myself and optimism is how I fuel myself and how long before that runs out? I'm not too sure but I'll keep you posted on that.BEHIND THE MASK...
