This Is Me: Love or Hate, Don't Care - Armor of the Day

I know the way

I dress draws

attention.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K7kNx9VPq

The colors

I choose

might clash.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4GSK1WM07

Laid out on the bed,

they don’t always match.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwAaVgdq59

But I don’t lay them out.

I wear them.

I try them.

I look in the mirror.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9LtHzDxlM

Do I feel like me?

If yes, I let it be.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyGagA2jBV

If something’s missing,

I’ll add a quirky touch—

a necklace,

a pin,

a shift in shade.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmZ7PV3OpO

If it doesn’t feel

like my day,

I change it all.

A nighttime ritual

before sleep.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z4InAVpGD

In the morning,

it becomes my armor—

to walk the world

outside my safe space.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkS6YHEfLq9

If someone stares,

let them.

If someone compliments,

I smile,

“I know,

I like it too.”

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv9xPcQU8C

And if I like them back,

I’ll compliment them—

just to open a door.
