I checked my closet today
Shall I wear my feelings on my sleeve
Will it be my waistcoat of sadness
with the hopeless cape of yesterday
I shall wear instead a shirt of love
with a coat of pure kindness
and shoes of a good journey
and gloves of giving
I look into a grey sky
and ask for help
with my wardrobe
