A Letter to My Body
How do I speak to my body? How do I write to it? How do I use my own words to say I love you? For all of the ways you have kept me, and in all the ways I tried to leave you We remain tied together so I love you for the gift from God that you are I love you for the beats your heart has given me I love you for being me And I am so sorry for treating you lesser than Even my dog.
