erosion

Life has eroded me
but somehow, I think it makes me more beautiful---
My edges smooth and soft

the scars
remind me
of my wholeness, that unshakable wholeness

some of the stretch marks
remind me
I gave birth to a most beautiful daughter who gives me back love and life
Others remind me that I can have big changes in my body and still somehow I am whole

My heart so full of scars that it makes a patchwork of old loves and losses
growing deeper with time
Erosion has made me soften, My heart more open and my love so pure,
My love of this day so wonderfully precious.
