I am closet ghost 

Transparent to some 

Yet visible to others

I float from closet to closet

Trying to find one I can call home


I am a closet 

My first is no longer my own

Truly it was daunting

Those dresses and bows were putrid 

Though I hated parting with my beloved corduroy


I am closet ghost

The second closet is also gone 

Vibrant patterns, now tattered 

Awkward knee length shorts

and polka dotted socks messily folded away


I am a closet ghost

the third smells awfully like Hot Topic 

acid washed jeans and bracelets 

comparing of different shades of black

it was just a band t-shirt but it meant so much more


I am a closet ghost 

my fourth closet is cozy

there's warmth in these sweaters 

pockets to get lost in

fabrics that boost confidence 


I am a closet ghost

I know each closet is temporary 

they are constantly evolving

for now number four is one I can call home

I do not need to be afraid to come out
