Redefinition and Resilience

She rewrote her story, banished despair,
With a lot of his money and without care.
A sculptor of flesh, she emerged with grace,
Her dreams woven tight in a bold new embrace.

Laughter’s soft whispers and scorn’s sharp bite,
Promised to heal each wound and blight.
She swapped her old self for a glimmering dream,
Each incision a step towards a vision supreme.

Liposuction started the sculpting spree,
Under the watch of a meticulous decree.
Then the lift and augmentation came to be,
A canvas reformed to her heart’s jubilee.

Her eyes shone blue like the summer’s deep hue,
With a touch of magic, her past was subdued.
Rhinoplasty shaped her contours anew,
As she chased perfection, her past she outgrew.

A tummy tuck spoke of battles once fought,
Yet freedom’s weight was a heavy cost.
And just as she revelled in her fresh delight,
He cast a dark shadow, turning day into night.

“Can’t you see, my love, the art that I bought?
With each incision, my devotion was sought.
But now, as you leave, a deal left undone,
You owe me for this transformation, my one.”

Implants and dreams lay scattered and torn,
Her heart, like porcelain, bruised and worn.
“Refund the beauty, remove every trace,
Or stay, my dear, in this altered space.”

She quivered, for freedom felt like a stone,
To undo each promise, each choice she’d known.
Her body a ledger, her soul torn apart—
In the bankruptcy of love, a cruel, painful art.

“Each stitch that you see, each line that you trace,
Is a mark of my courage, a brave, tender place.
To leave is to honour my soul’s deepest plea,
You can’t demand back the choices I’ve set free.”

As time moves on, she gathers her might,
Her scars tell a tale, defying the night.
No dollar can measure her reclaimed self,
Nor the worth of autonomy’s true wealth.

With courage ablaze, she steps into the day,
No longer bound by his harsh display.
Her body, now hers, a temple renewed—
In the dawn of her freedom, she blossoms, pursued.
