this is all there is

(2013)

 

my body is small

my ******* are unimpressive

my hair is without luster

my hips are not seductive

my eyes are not deep pools of mystery

my skin is flawed

my mind is addled

my voice is not lyrical

my walk is without grace

my words are not eloquent

my feet are scarred

my knees are bony

my piercings are skew

my nails varnish is chipped

my teeth are yellow

my nose is big

my wardrobe is uninspired

my job is meaningless

my libido is low

 

yet,

i love you more than i have words to declare.

is that not enough?
