I see you daily
You in your flowing long skirts
Not minding that such's practically gone extinct
Yet you carry on
Like your flowing locks of hair
To the lady in the long skirt
I like your attire
Clothed in modesty's best
I'd like to be you
I'm glad I'm you
Your flowing long skirts to me
Represent unconformity
Defiance
They speak to me
They tell me that I don't need to cater to society's standards of beautification or adornment
They tell deep things
They tell me that I don't need to be naked
To feel loved
That I don't need to go unclad
To be admired
You young lady are brave
You are strong
And I admire you
To the lady in the long skirt
Despite the ridicule
And the laughter
And the name calling
Keep being you
To the lady in the long skirt
You're the girl after my heart
Rock on girl
Don't believe the lie that you're outdated
And old-fashioned
And out of touch
And not fashion forward
Rock on girl
With your long flowing skirts
This is to that lady in the long flowing skirt...
