tell me, how did it feel when my foot pierced your chest
when i told you to get off of me
tell me, was it hard when i told you no
when i made you realize that you are not the owner of my body
that you do not get to decide what choices i can and can not make
please, in full detail, for everyone in attendance, explain how your heart slowed when i proudly exclaimed “stop, do not touch me”
because i am not your property
somehow, i don’t remember signing the lease over to you
my shorts length is not a public property sign
saying “all are welcome”
because with my hand on a tarot deck, i will proudly exclaim that “my body is mine” that my words and decisions will not change unless i want them to
and maybe one day, i will allow someone to sign a lease and borrow the title
but today, i get to keep the pen

I am a walking talking
Mother doctor wife machine
My wild spirit chained into stillness
By loving hands

Look at these small bodies
Nesting on my lap
Feeding off my body my mind

The people in hospital beds
Looking for the solution
To all their troubles

His hands on my body
Exploring his own desire
Drawn onto my body

Which part of me is mine?

Would you love me if i was covered in scars?
If I was always sad?
If I couldn't commit?
Would you love me if i couldn't love myself?
Because i love you even though your heart is broke.
When you say you cant go on.
When you lose control.
I love you for who you are.
Can you learn to love me?
Even though i dont love myself I would hope that you could love me for what i am.

Maybe if you try it all the time,
You’ll have the chance, wait and fly.
You know right? What am I talking about?
Not status, nor money or even a price.
How about if you try and get to know yourself, to accept what you are and always be great.
Great on your mind and smiling with your eyes, loving our own company to share in life.

Give it a chance, try harder on that.
That’s the best advice I can provide.

Why would you choose someone like me?

There are women much prettier than I,

With skin softer than mine,

Hair longer,

Bodies better,

Voices smoother,

Eyes deeper,

Personalities richer,

Hearts bigger.

Why would you choose someone like me?

You can have so much more than my low self-esteem.

you're not pretty
like all of these other girls that you see
on the tv and in magazines
but who you are
is so unique
more than those other girls
could ever hope to be
