What will be
of my body?
She is strong, and beautiful
she is unique in her own way
and holds a life just as precious
as any other

What will become of her
in this world?
a piece to look at
like trash on the side of the road
rather than a work of art hanging on
a tall wall

Will she be spoken to
with aggressive words?
rather than with words of
care and love

And the other bodies?
Will they grow to only be weak
and fall for a world
of unrealistic expectations

She is beautiful
we carry a voice
that will never be turned off

Eyes in front of mine
that i know only
see me
maybe even
for who I am

I'm looking back
and yet
all my mind sees is you

How
How do I stop

Caring

All I want

Is to stop

I can feel my heart
coming to terms
holding my head high
that I'm worth something
loving all the dark parts
of my mind
seeing the beauty
life has given me
the blessing I have
adoration for the two legs that hold me up
and walked away from you
Lourdes Luna Nov 2016
You wrote me a letter
and left it on the door step
to my surprise
you said
"there was a time I was who I wanted to be"

These words will forever haunt me
because it goes to show
you could of done it
we could of been
for longer than the moment
and then I ask
was it my fault?

Why couldn't you hold on longer?
or fight it harder
these answers will never come

You will never come back.

He see's me in a way
I don't think any one ever
has before.
He says my strength
through what you did to me
makes him love me
He tells me all the little
things I find ordinary
about myself
are beautiful
There's even moments when
i catch him staring
and a feeling in my chest
forms
fluttering, it seems

He is such a great gift
after opening empty
promises
Like he slipped through the
few cracks
that were left on my broken heart
to heal the parts of it
I couldn't

I knew you were setting me up
to say the things you wanted to hear

I haven't moved on
He's no one special
I miss you

My heart can see through the manipulation
now
A little game you play
to stroke your ego
How much deeper
did you want to cut me
this time?

**He is someone special
