A Wo-Monologue

This is a monologue I wrote for auditions to be in a local play.
I haven't read it yet, but I do hope that I get bonus points for writing my own...

I awake in the morning to exactly the same world.
I still have the same room, the same clothes,
and the same body.

I move to the bathroom and get ready for the day.
All the while cursing that one little piece of genetic material,
that split missing a piece.

For whatever reason this happened, as some cruel cosmic joke,
a vengeful higher power exacting revenge on me for actions
in a past life, or even as a blessing, to be one of the few to see
the world from both sides of the looking glass, why was I the one
to have to suffer it?

I finish brushing teeth and hair, and clean myself up for the day,
and walk back to my room to pull out todays facade.
The same T-Shirt, blue jeans, and work boots.

I hate it so much. I feel like I slowly kill myself with each
passing day as I hide her deep within myself. As I bury her
under this false image in self-defense.

I mark off another day in my mental calender.
One day closer to the day when finally that beautiful
scalpel will set her free and bring her out to breathe
the cool, fresh air that this world has somewhere.

I head out the door into the cold foggy world that
despises us so, and yet...

I set out, optimistic, and full of hope...
