Pink--
The soft and delicate reminder
of all things feminine...
And I tried desperately
To fit you in,
A reminder of my own femininity
But no matter how hard I fight,
Which shade I choose to display,
What quantity I provide--
Girly overpowers professional
And I wonder if it will fail...
Will I take that gamble
Douse my professional side
In this, the unprofessional color
Or succumb to masculine standards?
Allow myself to be boxed in
To this society of masculine tones.
