Out with old in with the new

dear body
she wears her scars

 I didn’t always love my old. I was always criticizing it. Not appreciating it enough.

Now that it is gone. I am so sad. So sad. I cry often. I didn’t want this. I didn’t ask for this.

My old was me. It was real. It was imperfect. My old is now gone. It tried to kill me. I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t deserve this. It was a wake up call to appreciate everything about myself.

Every day I remind myself to wear my scars like a warrior for it reminds me that I AM ALIVE!
