Inhale / exhale
Do you still love me?
Inhale / exhale
Did you ever love me?
Inhale / exhale
Is it because I don’t look the same as before?
Because my clothes don’t sit the same
And my face is textured
Inhale / exhale
Is it because I’m not as fun as I was before? Because I can be that girl again if you need her
She’s in here somewhere I promise
Inhale
Is it because I’m not smart enough?
Because I really am trying
I read all those books you gave me just so we could talk like we used to
Inhale
What do you need me to change?
Because whatever it is I can do it
I’ll move the fucking Earth if that’s what it takes
Inhale / exhale
Please tell me what I did wrong
Did I do anything wrong?
Or am I just a lost cause to you

I felt....every single word! I was actually inhaling and exhaling with you. I've asked myself these questions before. What I found is...there is nothing to "change", not for someone else; especially physically. I started being myself, transparent, intentional, and embraced who I am. I felt...free! Now, this is a process and we all have those tough days, but....one day at a time, one emotion at a time! Thank you for sharing!
