and find the place

where i was taught to hate my body

where i was taught to carry shame

where i was taught i was not enough

and i break all those walls down

one by one

room by room

until i find the garden

they buried inside me

the garden blooming wild

with freedom

with self-love

with forgiveness

i sit there quietly

reminding myself

i am not weak

i am not ugly

i am not unworthy

i am not broken

i am a garden

i am whole

i am growing

i am infinite

And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I’ve heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.
