New Body

I’m filled with visions of you

Visions of you

If I could I would I would

Give you a body brand new

I’d sacrifice my flesh

As you gave yours to me so that you could be reborn

Fleshy and full of meat

an extraordinary physique

With muscle and sturdy bones

And a big beautiful smile with your perfectly full lips

The one I grew up knowing

the smile from my childhood that visit is me in my dreams

You’d dance wildly and freely like you used to

You’d back pack in Scotland

You’d tour Europe and maybe I’d get to meet you a few of those places

Maybe you’d move abroad and we’d get to come see you immersed in culture and music like you were meant to be

You’d finally for once get to experience life for yourself ... my biggest dream

There has to be some sort of Alchemy I can reach into to

What would I need soil an twigs from the earth , water, and leaves from a tree ?

The essence of hibiscus flowers , the songs of birds so you can sing ?

If I gather all my favorite things about you and mold them together maybe your soul can just hop in

Between your will and mine it will hold you together for another lifetime , youd live far beyond me

How happy would I be , to see you living free of your bodies ailments.

You are so much stronger them me

You find It still in your heart to be kind and generous to others

You accept your bodies changes so gracefully

Even though I know it’s hard to adjust to the ever changing reflection you see

Somehow mama you do and I admire your strength

If I could

if the power was gifted to me I’d build you a body brand new

But know that I will forever cherish this one I’ve known you in , in all it’s variants

Because it has gifted me moments memories, understandings, lessons in my lifetime with you

its given to me the very flesh that keeps me

What a gift you are indeed

For that and for you I will forever be grateful for , for a long as I live
