I have been thinking quite a bit about the struggle most women, in particular, face with regard to their bodies and body image. I have had several conversations lately with women who wrestle with this issue. I believe that it is important to remember that the body is the physical vessel for the soul – which is the essence of who we are. This piece was inspired by this.
My body is
not my favorite place to be
at times
it feels a bit too tight
like outgrown clothes
My soul is
me unrestrained within
the shell
yet expanding beyond
all boundaries
My heart is
between body and soul
loving both
and connected to all
sharing light
