There is a story behind every item of clothing that I wear
A cheap flannel appearing as if it is about to tear
A steel-boned corset underneath
Hiding my insecurities
Baggy jeans sitting on my chubby hips
Black nail polish on my fingertips
Combat boots shielding my feet
A baseball cap hiding my face from the Arizona heat
To be without my baggy jeans and long sleeves
To hide my insecurities
Leaves me feeling open and vulnerable
My scars openly visible
I wish to hide every part of my fat body
From just about everybody
Except for that one girl
That makes me comfortable being revealed in the outside world.
