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

I know the way

I dress draws

attention.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv4ASRt603

The colors

I choose

might clash.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOdoISk7bS

Laid out on the bed,

they don’t always match.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGgnoWWrg6

But I don’t lay them out.

I wear them.

I try them.

I look in the mirror.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPxcwDGpRe

Do I feel like me?

If yes, I let it be.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPxfscthzx

If something’s missing,

I’ll add a quirky touch—

a necklace,

a pin,

a shift in shade.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLNiKrRVGa

If it doesn’t feel

like my day,

I change it all.

A nighttime ritual

before sleep.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpUWu3eae8

In the morning,

it becomes my armor—

to walk the world

outside my safe space.

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsW8DPMTlS

If someone stares,

let them.

If someone compliments,

I smile,

“I know,

I like it too.”

235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXGTyRcc89

And if I like them back,

I’ll compliment them—

just to open a door.
