Ode to My Body
My body, my body,
Why have I forsaken thee?
Thou who carried me here,
And carries me through,
Thou my strength, my protection,
My instinct, my beauty
How could I doubt thee?
That you are with me and for me,
Why did I let myself be tricked
To think you are *****, unclean, deceitful?
It is I who was untrue
You remain faithful,
Step by step,
Day by day,
Carrying me,
Hair flowing,
Heart beating,
Eyes searching
Each breath a gift,
Each day together
Wholly, holy, one
Thank you
