Just Because...


Just because I wear colorful clothes

Doesn’t mean I’m happy.

Doesn’t mean I’m not hiding something.

Doesn’t mean I’m “in the mood”.

 

Just because I wear colorful clothes

Don’t assume I’m alright.

Don’t treat me any differently.

Don't ignore me.

 

Just because I wear colorful clothes

Don't make me invisible.

Don't accept I’m fine.

Don't think I’m not insecure

Just because I wear colorful clothes--There is more than meets the eye.
