When you see this face,
Remember the highs and feel the places beneath you;
The heaps of pain Crumbled at your feet.
The doors shut and broken down to lift you up.
Look fearlessly into your eyes
Love yourself on one condition,
That your embrace of self-love
Is the only way to get higher.
Caress yourself gently.
When you see this face, see everything.
See your heels rising, defying the gravity of a lie,
Feel your toes putting up a fight,
Listen to your veins gathering up, rushing home.
When you see this face, bath it in holiness.
Consume it wholly, own it, and honour it.
Make love to your mind in intimate, untamed conversation.
Touch every inch of your body, with a divine blessing.
Forgive yourself for sinning against it.
