Mind,Body,Soul




Dear Mind,
You are my greatest asset,
You cannot be duplicated.
You make me individual ,
You keep me educated.

Keep me grounded
keep me sane, 
Help me love 
Help numb the pain. 

Always moving 
And yet so still.
Always proving what I feel,
However crazy it may be
I am you and you are me.

Dear Body,
We've been together through it all 
Growing pains to become tall. 

My visual insecurity, 
My obvious lack of purity,
Marks and lumps I carry around
Always screaming never making a sound.

Divert the eyes away from you
The message is not getting through.
I am ashamed but hope to be proud 
Be able to look unto the crowd. 

Without changing you one day I'll see 
I am you and you are me. 

Dear Soul, 
You are Gold, eccentric.
You are Free, electric.
Embody Warm happiness 

You are Moody, depressed.
You are Cold, harshness.

Embrace teen angst. 

Grow everyday, no longer weak

Stay strong against the world so bleak.

 

Oh Trinity how I love and hate 

The way you me debate 

Myself to which I must be true

You are me and I am You.

 
With Love,
Yourself
