You think I don’t hear you

But I’ve heard it all

Every whisper

Every snicker

Every snide remark

Every helpful tip you’ve ever had to share

 

I used to keep myself at night

Soaking my pillowcase

I abused myself

I hated myself

I hurt myself even more than you

 

It took some time

But soon I did learn

How wonderful my body is

It is strong

It is beautiful

It is remarkable

 

My face

My stomach

My thighs

My boobs

My arms

My butt

There’s more to love

 

And I love it

It doesn’t matter to me if you do too
