They say when a woman is loved properly she becomes twenty times the woman she was before. So now I shall begin to love myself properly. I will lift myself when I have fallen. I will speak kind and loving words to me when I am down. I will pet my own face          and stroke my own skin when I need comforting. I will listen with intent to hear when I have something to say. I will not ignore me. Perhaps one day if you’re interested I’ll let you try. But first I must uncover the one I feel you seeing       when you look at me. I’ve been buried a long time.
