A Letter To My Body

Dear skin, since when have you become so rough from the tattoos picked to cover up your scars. Dear fingers, you can finally let go. Dear eyes, don't look for your past anymore. Dear feet, stop running away from yourself. Dear heart, stop picking fights with your brain. Dear back, giving it to to people isn't going to help you find friends. Dear nostrils, you're one of the five senses you should be able to smell the ugly on people. Dear lungs, you don't need to inhale every lie. Dear bones, I need you to keep me together. Dear lips, stop craving what's gone. Dear ears, listen up, I need you. Dear me, you're still beautiful.
