Buy that dress,
They said,
You’d look more confident.
With a 5 inch heels,
To go with,
For, height boosts confidence.
What about a touch,
Of red lipstick?
Ooh, that looks confident.
And ditch that scarf,
Over your hair,
There- you look confident.
If you’ve got friends,
With these ideals,
Depicting confidence.
You’ll need new ones,
To teach you what,
Real confidence means.
It begins with self-
To walk in a room,
and not need validation
Being comfortable,
in the skin that you wear ,
Now that is confidence.
