Close your eyes and breathe
Just do this for me
No
Do this for you

Feel the contours of your body
The unique curvatures
You own this fingerprinted body
Tell yourself that you are yours
Do this for you

Feel the beating of your heart
That sound is so gentle
So tempting to break down
But you've survived your pains
Pounding on the walls of your chest
Do this for you

Feel your mind
Pulling you through doors
Terrifying at every turn
Who you are comes from those doors
Do this for you

Feel yourself
Because you are all that matter
Because your body is yours
Because your heart is yours
Because your mind is yours
Because you are yours

Crave yourself.
Likely a draft.
