Ode to my body
I love my body like a distant friend
We don’t talk much
But when we do
It’s like she never left
My desire for her was a secret I never kept
She loves me too
Decorating our temple
But we both know we can’t live in here
Forever
I went through so much
Pain
Trying to alter her out of love
But we both know we’ll have to go up above
are we just another grain in the sandbox
Just another flesh robot
That dead drops
Another bill for a coffin box
Another expired loved one that was lost
when these bones start to brittle
All I’m left with is my mental
And I want her to be proud of me
I want love to fluctuate like the blood in my body
I want this trial to be worth my fait
I want this tribulation to be worth risking my faith
I want to be as invincible as the only begotten son
Because yes his body was hurting but his mind was simply not here
once I reach that level of Conscience
I’ll live with no fear
