Georgina Elizabeth Isles - Figure Model
They ask why I give my naked body to be stared upon. What I think about as I watch men move around spaces trying to capture my bum at a certain angle, or my small breasts in a certain light, occasionally muttering words of satisfaction, or direction. Why I love the voyeurs of my body (and they are all voyeurs).
Whilst I sit and wait for the drawers to draw and photographers to photograph, I always think of you; Bob. I travel more now you are gone. I speak less. They try to capture what I could only give to you; my heart and abandoned body, lying bare as your canvas. My gosh, did you draw Bobby! Did you shade me grey and darken my shadows? Shine light where there was none? If only they could capture what you took. Pray, at least they have what you left behind; the little girl who gave you all, and all at once lost it, to you.
I believe they met a girl like me once, and forever they will chase her to their canvases. Again and again they load their film and click. I will sit here and wait until you return.
