When you love me,
take me in –
Breathe the essence
of my skin
And despite my
blurred edges
And the scars
that I might hide,
Know that I am real,
aching
And seeking
to be made whole.
Love my lines
Love my edges
Love the beauty
Of who I want to be
Not perfect, no –
But I know that I
can love you
Perfectly.
