Embracing Self
I said I yearned for someone
To reach deep within,
To find love in the shadows of me,
Where the moon's light never touches,
Where warmth seemed forever distant.
Yet these were the very parts
I shunned when facing the mirror,
The ones I tried to erase
From my skin, despite the pain.
I realized then,
The love I hold for myself
Isn't enough to touch every hidden corner.
How can I expect from another
What I cannot fully give myself
