One Life. One Body.
One life.
One body wrapping up joints, tendons, vessels,
capillaries, arteries, and organs.
Head full of long black hair.
One pair of dark brown eyes.
Golden skin that easily tans;
Skin without any current serious conditions.
Skin marked with lines, scars and tattoos for life.
A pair of feet that I can stand on for a prolonged period of time.
Two legs.
Thighs that have gotten thicker over the years.
Two hands.
A back that I am able to bend.
Two knees that I can also bend and comfortably.
Nails that have never been brittle.
Two ears to listen to music and learn something from conversations with.
One nose.
One set of bones.
A pair of hips and ribs.
One neck to turn my head with.
One mouth to taste with.
One heart.
One mind.
One set of experiences to feel ashamed of, to feel anguished by,
to keep me walking, to motivate me to wake up,
to get me hoping and wanting more.
One life.
One body.
I want to do whatever I want.
