The Perfect Pair of Jeans
Cotton has never been so strong
And felt so good
Blue has never made me so happy
Orange thread holds together
The thing that holds happiness for me
The size is smaller than last winter
The way I feel when
I slide them on
Sexy, confident, fit
Ready to face the day
In material that can
Stand up to anything
It covers me and protects me
From wind, rain, and staring eyes
Eyes that can’t guess that pain
Courses down these legs
Or make guesses at
How I got my scar
Until I pull out the shorts
That make me feel cute
And catch the eye of that guy
His eyes never go
All the way down
To feet covered in scars
My butt looks good
And even I forget
About the scars no one sees
This blue cloth makes me feel
Whole and able to take on the day
Here is one of my longer poems, just to keep things interesting.
What is one of your favorite items of clothing?
