This body-
150mph storm winds,
Blowing away every bit of
Security
I have scraped together
From years of dwelling in the dark.
This body
Is my prison,
Trapping me in
A bone cage
Covered in soft porcelain skin.
I do not want to be at war with it
Anymore.
This body takes me where I want to go.
It dances to my favorite songs
At 2am.
I do not love this body yet.
But, sometimes,
This body
Is my friend.
