my body is a temple,
not a battleground
for other women to fight in.
my body is a temple,
not a pit stop for other men,
that needs a place to rest in for the night.
my body is a temple,
not a critical text you can analyse,
and assume judgement like a book you never read.
my body is a temple,
not a pack of wild animals,
aimed to be restrained and taught what to do.
my body is a temple,
and it tells a story that no one
except for me will ever understand.
my body is a temple,
and it will not be disrespected.
like a religion, i'll learn to worship it.
MY BODY IS A TEMPLE SO LEARN HOW TO WORSHIP IT.
