apologies

Dear body, 
My sincerest apologies.  
You were my home and my goal was to ruin you.

I was neither kind nor gentle.
I am sorry for the words I called you.
I regret spending minute after minute pinching you. 
I didn't know I would leave scars after I tore you to shreds.
I now know it isn't possible for you to be perfect.

My body, a gift from God, you are. 
Who am I to say you aren't beautiful?

"I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well" - Psalm 139:14(ESV)

He made me capable of so many things, and I will no longer take that for granted. 

Love, Madeline
