To Wear

It’s such an odd look for me to be sad

It doesn’t fit me as well as anger

Or tragedy

Or fury

It’s not something I like to wear

And if I could take it off and put it back in the closet I would

The colour doesn’t suit me and I’m oh so pale in it

I look so much more alive in a bit of joy

Or happiness

Or excitement

So why am I wearing this dreary dark coat today of all days

Don’t I know what a lucky girl I am?

Well maybe I’m lucky

I think only Lady Time will tell us that

And she never gives spoilers in advance

Never shows an ankle or spins for a tease

But whether I’m lucky or not I know I’m an

Odd

Pale

Girl
