I saw a photo, and this is what I felt.
That grey-silver stripe
doesn’t tell me anything
I just know I like it
It makes me feel you’re real
or have that certain sense of style
It doesn’t say anything about me
I’ll leave that to you
I may be who you think I am
or I may not
It’s not up to me
I’m not leaving it up to you
to avoid anything I shouldn’t
I know, I’ve said too much
let this moment get too awkward
I’m trying to feel what I feel
without denying anything
I don’t know if I like it
I just know it’s real
