Crop top

There are times, moments
When I look in the mirror
And I reflect on all the bodies
That I have lived in just in one life
I once was rail thin, wraith like
As if one strong wind would pick me up
You could count my ribs just by looking
But now my body is an overflowing hourglass
Nothing quite like touching flesh so soft
My abdomen is like a pillow
And I have lost count how many folks
Have used my body like an oasis
To rest, sleep and drink love from
I went from a tiny desert body
To one overflowing with wealth
Strength changing with life circumstances
I bought a crop top just for the hell of it
And my god how I wish I had been
More brave when my body was more
Conventionally attractive to certain eyes
But these curves fit me well
And this crop top shows it off
St the gods help me love this oasis
And help me forget my desert
