You bypassed the “Tramp Stamp”,

 Left any semblance of frustrating repertoire long ago or miles away

Your rhetoric realistic and soulful,

Proving arguments and providing wisdom

You are the reason depression has ended and love songs have begun,

Antithetic and unorthodox from what once gave this chin stubble an embrace

It’s quite obvious to a trained eye, fellow traveler, that you are much more than bangs and lipstick
