I grew a lot this year and I'm proud of myself for that. This is from the beginning of senior year where I was beginning to find comfort and happiness with myself.
------
Goodness, it feels fantastic to feel inside your bodyI feel so much joy and happiness as myself and it's an intoxicating feeling
Slipping into my stomach like warm tea with too much honey
And I love the way my legs curve and angle themselves
The way my face is shaped
The way I carry myself
The sounds I make
The tamber of my voice
The awkward beard which is fixing itself to my jaw
The way my arms are filling out as I gain strength
The rise and fall of my stomach and the crevices of my hips marked by v-lines
The wiry hair which coats my legs
The confidence and joy I have
The way I love and I love and I don't stop caring and I'm consumed by passion and find myself diving into everything head first
The way I move my body, controlling and isolating each muscle
The way I feel like I am vibrating in my own skin
How my olive toned skin doesnt match with everything
I love myself and I've spent far too long struggling with myself

Sonnets for Someones
