You look at me and you frown in jealousy. Yeah, you secretly know I have swag. Pants a little low, black and red shirt that says “Sit down and learn from the Master,” and a matching hat that states what you already know- “FRESH”
You taste the bitterness of your words as you whisper lies to my back. Yeah, you secretly know I don’t care. Pants a little low, red and yellow shirt that says “My swoosh is bigger than yours” and a matching hat of who you think I resemble- Superman
You hear the high pitched hissing that I’m doing well and hope that I fail. Yeah, you secretly know I’ll succeed. Pants a little low, black and blue shirt that says “Just Did It” and a matching hat that reminds you of what you need to do- “OBEY”
You touch my strong shaped shoulders with yours and utter no apology. Yeah, you’re secretly freaking out with excitement. Pants a little low, blue and red shirt that says “Don’t Bro Me If You Don’t Know Me” and a matching hat with the best known bickering buddies- Tom and Jerry
You smell my confidence in the aroma of chocolate axe and you pinch your nose. Yeah, you’re secretly going to buy it later. Pants a little low, black and white shirt that says “Don’t sweat my swag” and a matching hat that proclaims my feelings for you- “I <3 Haters” and under the brim it says why- “MOTIVATION”
Wrote this poem in my senior yr in HS when I finally accepted myself as a more masculine lesbian and felt comfortable being who I was despite people's criticisms. As you can see I was oozing with new confidence. Still one of my favs lol
