Realize that bodies are only

Realize that bodies are only a fraction of who we are They’re just oddly-shaped vessels for hearts And honestly, they can barely contain us We strain at their seams with every breath we take We are all pulse and sweat, Tissue and nerve ending We are programmed to grope and fumble until we get it right. We only see the surface of each other the shallow images that smother the true refelctions of our souls our stories our struggles and lives and what you see when you look at me cannot begin to scratch the surface of what I really am
