Dear Body

Dear Body.mp3

Dear Eyes,

You see more than I can handle

You are the windows to my heart and soul

I hope nothing we see makes us less whole

Dear Heart,

You may break soon and I know you want to be in the right place

But I fear one day there will be a problem that not even we can face

Dear Mind,

You are my greatest camera, capturing these memories

But sometimes I really want to sleep, please

So can you stop reminding me of the embarrassing things that happened in middle school

Dear Hands,

You are helping me accomplish my dream, so thank you

And I know that I ask a lot of you, but please don't give up on me

Dear Mouth,

I have seen your words cut deeper than any knife

Please continue to tell the truth, but please be careful how you say it

Dear Body,

We work together to try and make it through the world, one day at a time

I know that it is hard sometimes and we want to give up when things go wrong

We will keep on

We will wear these scars with pride

We will be able to say we tried

Together, we are strong

So dear Body,
