Today's prompt is A SECRET
NEW WOMAN
She looks at herself
the careful reflection
Her hand shakes
She runs her fingers
through her hair
Then softly
rubs a blushed cheek
She leans closer
to inspect her lipstick
Tugs at her dress
Turning with one last
look, picks up her keys
and opens the door
Hesitating a moment
she steps out
to face the world
At last free
No longer he
but, who she
was meant to be
