I broke. -@whyreasons
I cried.
I learned that there are 36 toxins in a tear.
Detox.
So I cried even more.
I cried freely.
No embarrassment.
Seeking to find satisfaction within myself,
And freeing the trapped cortisol.
I cried with joy.
With laughter.
Until I looked in the mirror and smiled -
Saying 2 simple words...
āIām beautifulā.
I marked joy with every touch I gave to my imperfections.
And I felt natural reciprocity of love.
A different kinda love.
A love that tainted itās mark,
and left nothing,
but a flower behind.
Self love. - @whyreasons
