Queen of hearts

Red is the colour of passion

The passion that I feel when I place the red silk on my excited naked skin, I reflect on the nostalgia, the feeling of sensuality that I long for

As I awake in the morning with the sun on my face-the boring Running girl anticipates the chance to become the Queen of hearts once more

As I know that when i wear the colour red I will be the confident sexy woman that I don’t always allow myself or have the chance to be

The Red silk calls me “bring me your pain and I will silence it” for when you wear this colour-the colour of lust and passion, the thoughts of the past will halt”

I am covered in confidence as I step out of the car onto the streets of London within this silk cape of safety and sexuality, whatever it may be-I am no longer invisible, they look, they admire and I feel powerful

I can feel the electricity burning throw my body as I walk in my heels and red silk cape, wishing I could be the queen of hearts forever

The next morning when I awake I place on my running gear, then decide to wear a secret piece of red under-ware just to remind myself that the queen of hearts will return soon

I wait with utter excitement until the next time she will appear, my favourite person- the queen of hearts
