He glanced atΒ the cover
It caught his attention
He held his gaze upon it
A few weeks later he decided to open the book
He found horror and broken pieces,
But there was
love, & kindness
He didn't skip a page
He read from left to right
He knew when the story would change
He knew every word
My body was his book
My body's scars and shape became a new story
He glided his hands across my body
Each section telling a story
The wounds became a reminder of the hurt
The smiles and squinted eyes became the happy
He became a reader
My body became his favorite book
