There are so many eyes on me
So many stares, so many labels
There’s something about black
Black sunglasses
Boosted confidence?
Possibly
Black to go with everything?
Definitely
Protection from harmful sun rays?
Guaranteed
But none of these is the reason
For my copping of a pair
For as timeless as they may have made me out to be
There was something that I didn’t want the world to see
