Your Value
Your value does not lie
in your number on the scale
nor the circumference of your thighs
it is not measured by the size of your bicep
visibility of your abs
or the prevalence of your hips
it is not judged by the clarity of your skin
the shine of your hair
or the stain on your lips
It is sizable by the depth of your soul
what lies beneath your skin –
pull back your layers
split open your ribcage
and let the beauty of your soul swell
as your blossoming thoughts
moonlit dreams
and star speckled goals
overflow
pouring over your edges
releasing your inner most desires
bearing me your heart
-POE(MS)
