Truly one of my ugliest aspects within my being,
the ugly feel and fear of ugliness.
Dear body, I\'m sorry I treat you this way.
a constant cycle of hatred and physical, verbal abuse.
you take such great care of me
Why is it so difficult to return the favor?
I began to realize what it truly means to live in this realm and on this planet.
Our bodies are in natural give and take with the earth
just as any other living thing, as we were all birthed from the same ground beneath.
under the same sun that blesses the living body.
My mind is what connects my soul to my physical person.
This strong and power filled emotion is what makes me a human.
this emotion is tied with how I think and react in different situations.
My ego shields over my soul, creating this double conscious mind.
as my ego seems to be all I\'ve ever known, he swallows me whole
Do you think that I\'m pretty? really?
truly why do I find this so important?
when all I teach and preach is
we are more than what the surface brings.
I feel unclean
can\'t help the feeling and need to scream
I sit in this tub for hours
why don\'t I feel clean?
seeking validation
what do you think?
tell the truth.
while seeking validation from anyone but yourself
is truly invalid
you know you
look at yourself
have a talk
love you
for the good and bad
the raw
clean and unclean.
it\'s you.
