"this body"

I should love this body-


after all,

she is the sun and the moon

and the trees and the rivers,


she is a blank canvas

that has been marked

by wisdom and experience

yet somehow,


I can barely stand

to look at her in the mirror,


I cannot conceptualize

the beauty


and I don’t know what she looks like

because I block out

what my eyes don’t

want to see.
