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
