Curse by curse
I was striped and worn
‘Til I was thin enough
To be torn.
Punch by punch
I deserve each blow.
How was I know
Of my worth?
Breath by breath
Scrambling at thin straws
Satisfied with scraps
Of his love.
This is how
You found me down
Drowning in the well
Of my fears.
but…
Piece by piece
You restored in me
All the strength I though
I had lost.
Touch by touch
You have made me feel
That your love could heal
All my scars
Kiss by kiss
I began to see
The face in the mirror
Smile at me.
Piece by piece
I am whole once more
Ready to explore
Who I am.
