This Body

Every morning I make love to this body

I used to treat her like a suit of armor
Cold
Detached
Disposable
Replaceable

I wake her up every morning
I play with her, stretch, push
I allow her new experiences
Fill every crevice with gratitude
I nourish her out of love

I am gentle with her
I push her limits,
but allow for healing and rest

I am one with her.
We are one.
