Leather Vest

Leather Vest

A Poem by Tara Ghorm

     A vest of leather adorns my breast

To set me off from all the rest

It warns others not to mess

And keeps my feelings in my chest

 

     A vest of leather sets me apart

And seperates my vicious heart

From all the loving, caring folk

My fury is a work of art

    

     A vest of leather scares them away

Those fools won't start with me today

As I come off as violent, vengeful, bad

"She was so calm..." that's what they say

 

     A vest of leather keeps me silent

Though all my emotions make me violent

It keeps me from busrting at the seems

I'm fragil, hurt, suicidal to an extent

 

     A vest of leather is not worn

For you asked that it be put aside this morn

Then, I realized, I can't hide from you

No matter how much leather I adorn

Author's Note

Tara Ghorm
Geki-kun! It's so simple to understand!
The leather vest sets me apart from the others.
It frightens people away from me.
And it hides my true feelings.
But I can't hide myself from you, Love.
