Dress
Like an old dress I don't want to wear anymore
I outgrew it and I don't want it wrap in me
I am taking it off like it is not my favorite
It may feel strange not having it close to my body
But I felt free like a clean slate
I wish I have done this before
Now with my new dress, I feel strange wearing it now
But I feel confident that I'll take it to places
This is me, still me but a bit changed
I am with a new cloth and still unstained
But I'll go to new places and paint my white silk
Soon enough, I'll change but I'm happy with what I'm wearing.
