~This Body~

This body is larger and softer than it was last year, but it still gives comfort, companionship, and pleasure.
 
This body has been through alot that I'm surprised I'm still here at times.
 
This body walks a girl-child to school, holding hands, talking about the minutiae swimming around in an 8yo's mind on the way.

I am happy to be able to do that.
 
This body protects people, standing between them and danger.
 
This body reminds me daily of every car crash, motorcycle wreck, fall, misstep and fight it’s ever been through. And while it all too often limps, pops and creaks it’s still fully functional and mine. I’ll keep it and not regret anything it’s been through with me. :)
 
This body came back from the brink.

The anesthetist told me later when he'd reviewed his notes he couldn't believe the number of times they had resuscitated me. That's what you get when you're too close to explosives.

What were you doing?

Goodness!! I'm thankful your body is still with us! Oops, locks, creaks and all! :heart:
 
This body looks good (naked) to some people.

Whaaa?? I know!! Crazy, but apparently it's true.
 
This body will never be in Vogue magazine, but it finds girly treats at Goodwill like rainbow swimsuits and vintage orange gingham half aprons and pink Converse sneakers so that little girls can feel happy and fun about what they wear, even if it's different from the other kids at school.
 
This body comes with a slightly used brain that stores too much useless information, but can sometimes be of interest...
 
This body has been beaten and bruised, but still finds joy in being touched, and in touching others.

cut me and I will bleed
tickle me and I will giggle
I look at a sandwich and put weight on
I stand at the bottom of my stairs to my apartment and I sigh
But this is me, my body it's the only one I got. Fatty bits an all
