Skinny jeans

Folder: 
2013

I starve myself to fit you

Void of what makes me ‘me’

Obsess over my flabby bits

What can I trim?

Slip in

Let you constrain me

So I can hardly move

Bend only how you want me to bend

In the deep recesses of my soul

Tight and uncomfortable

Leaving ripples on my skin from your creases

Skinny jeans

I starve myself to fit you

Tight and uncomfortable

Because I think that you look good on me

I get your intention, and it's a great poem that way, but my contrarian nature allowed me to take a different reading, a disparate view of my own choosing, and let the metaphor speak in a way that I see as more revealing, more penetrating, for me. (Besides, all mirrors are at least a liitle out of whack!;-) And the view was with my definition Dear, and it's a hell of a definition!!! You know how much I value all that you are ;-)

I always liked the look of a girl in sweatpants and a tank top. There's just something beautiful about a girl that doesn't have to try
