On Self Love
You are so much more than photoshopped bodies.
You are a spine that gets you up off the ground when you’re ready to fight back
you are the legs that walk away when enough is enough.
You are the arms that reach out when you need someone else.
You are the heart that loves them, and forgets to keep a little love for yourself sometimes.

You are so much more than your scars,
you are the blood that runs beneath them
you are every single cell in your body
fighting to keep you alive.
You are so much more than the branches on your stomach and your thighs.
You are your voice, your dreams and your fiery heart.

You are so much more than a strangers scoff
you are the strength that ignores it.
You are so much more than a slur,
you are the courage that fights it.
