I remember being 10
Looking down at myself
no one could ever love this body
I remember beating myself up
Nothing close to perfect
I remember being 14
Dressing like a boy to hide my body
Looking down at my body
Stretch marks and rolls
no one will ever love this body
So how could I begin to be perfect?
But this morning as I was leaving
You wrapped your arms around me
Kneeling down you kissed me on the stomach
Felt my stretch marks
Kissed my rolls
I looked down to a man who loves me
For everything I am
To you I am perfect
And that was all the strength I ever needed
