#BEINYOURSKIN

Wavy was the ripples in my shirt from the things BEneath .

BEneath the things was flesh and a heart

BEneath the things that covered every inch of my body from the very start.

BEneath the things were the words and fat shame she had fought

BEneath the things were the tears and dread of what others thought.

BEneath the things she aligned her soul.
  & would soon learn to gain some self control.

BEneath the things she diluted with gear to hide the wave of her
selfless shear.

BEneath the things she hated for years
   to only learn they were here to stir.

She forgave herself for the down talks and doubt
   & showed the world her authentic self.

She preaches now and here on out
BE IN YOUR SKIN my dear for its the only shell you'll  ever wear.
