I look like I fit my skin better these days,
Because I am filling it
With life-force.
There are no more apologies
In the lines around my eyes.
These are memories that I wish to hold forever,
Weight I carry well.
I feel loved in different ways.
Instead of love that merely touches the surface
Of my epidermis,
I feel it deep in my bones
And in the bones of my ancestors
As they heal beneath the surface.
