Unfathomable.
Unfathomable.
There are days when,
You give me strength and confidence
To look at myself in the mirror,
Without feeling ashamed
Of the thick arms and fat thighs
That showcase themselves proudly
And a bulge on my abdomen
That doesn't seem to stop growing,
You,
Of all the people who surround me,
Make me feel better
And i am not fond of the way
These emotions surface
While you remain unbeknownst
To the power you have over my self worth,
A dauntingly pleasant power.
They may call it what they want to,
For i cannot describe it,
Something so strong
Managing to exist
Without exchanged syllables between you and i.
Perhaps i put you on a pedestal,
Perhaps i am not wrong about this.
But,
Be what it may,
It frightens me and brings me joy.
