Baggy Clothes

I wear baggy clothes
I wear long sleeve shirts
I wear hoodies
I don't show my skin
But not because of the scars my arms bear
But because of the assumptions that will spread
The rumors of why I do it
The judgemental looks from those that don't understand
The stares and snarky comments
"It's all for attention you're not depressed"
For the pity from strangers I've never spoken too
For the betrayal of those I thought would understand
I wear hoodies
I wear long sleeve shirts
I wear baggy clothes
But not
for
the
reasons you think...
