The Eyeshadow Smudged on Your Sleeve

There is nothing wrong with

wearing ribbons in your hair and

twirling in your plaid uniform skirt and

dressing like a tomboy sometimes and

refusing to let anyone tell you not to

wear your heart on your sleeve;

nothing wrong with scars and

sparkly eyeshadow and

throwing a football in the backyard;

nothing wrong with changing your mind and

changing styles and

who you think you are, acting

slightly different when you wear khakis 

instead of a skirt to school;

you're

still you, and

you'll always wear it

on your sleeve.
