How do you view yourself?





Is the body a coffin for the soul
Or a chemical romance?
A product of creative love
Or a home for familial ghosts?

Do you value how you've worn
Or notice each imperfection?
Do you celebrate your senses
Or long for bodily freedom?

Do you always look skyward
Long to dance among the planets?
Or suffer from vertigo
When your feet aren't on granite?

Do you feel like a misfit
Fruit of the poisoned tree?
Or as a flower in a forest
Hosting cicada symphony?

If you aren't in love
With your body, mind and soul
This summer take a step back
Self love should be your goal

Imagine you're your friend
See the good they'd see in you
Let confidence take flight
You're a delightful view
