The days where you just feel okay in yourself are my favorite Where others don't abraise you like an itchy wool sweater Where trouble doesn't sit in your stomach like bad pasta Where you can float along, just being you Feeling confident that your face is fashioned in just the right way That your tights are pulled up That your shirt is pulled down Those days where you just embrace the fact that others talk But it doesn't have to define you I know I have trouble with this I think we all do Others talking is a great part of the things that make me unhappy I think "Well, if only that person wouldn't be talking about me, I would be happier" But when the truth is, I can choose whether or not to listen I can choose whether or not to sit with them Or whether or not I believe something someone else is saying about my life Because we all know that other people are the experts on all our problems Fastening their opinions of us based off the exterior of our faces Well, if there is someone who knows more about me than I know myself Come, please have me meet them, because I would sure like the answer key to life's book of problems Because perhaps they play God, too.
