“I have forgiven my hands

for always trying to mold my body

into something that it has

never been able to become.

I have forgiven my eyes

for seeing myself as someone

who can never be fixed,

who can never be loved by

anyone who is worth the wait.

I have forgiven my skin

for never properly healing,

for never being as flawless

and neat as I always tried

to make it. But mostly I forgive

myself for always wanting

to be someone different

when really I am someone

who is perfectly fine

exactly the way I am.”
