Playing Dress Up | tw: suicide

Elbows bent, awkwardly, stripping myself

Closet opened, searching for my favorite shirt

Found it. A white graphic tee 

And let it swallow my torso whole

Feeling the soft cotton on my skin


I hunch over, and undress my shorts. 

In search of comfortable, everyday underwear

Thinking about what’s next to wear

How about my second favourite jeans?

Bending, feeling the jeans drift on my legs. I find myself dressed

For any occasion


Thinking about tomorrows, and what’s next

Hangout with my friends, at 3

Buying cat food afterwards

Watching that new movie I’ve been anticipating since last year

Enjoy a talk with my grandma

Exciting thoughts, that’ll wake me up tomorrow.


I open the window

Watch the ground

And fly
