The colors
The feel of them
Against your skin
Some serious
Others fun
For all four seasons
Clothes
Make you who you are
On the outside
The perception
For business or pleasure
Clothes change you
As you get older
Fashion becomes different
New trends are born
Taste also undergoes transformation
Sometimes just sometimes
Depending on what life throws at you
You can toss those threads away
Or give them to Goodwill
Because some of those things
You just can't look at anymore
Because they don't fit
And because you're a different person
Closet space is a factor
Change is a must
Especially if one has gone through
A life altering experience
Example:
Never used to like shiny things to wear
Now since last year
Post August 1st of course
A lot of my new wardrobe
Is sparkly or shiny
Not obnoxiously so
But just enough to lift the mood
The spirit
The soul
I threw out and continue to chuck
A lot of my clothes toward the needy
Because I'm a different person
And I need things that I can love
Without memories
Flashbacks
And cringing
As well as feeling
Like the person I have become
Clothes
New clothes
Help in the reviving
Of the inner happiness
And just how important is that?
