if I could learn to love myself
the way that I love you
I'd finally cherish my body
the way that it deserves.
I'd make sure that it was fed
and well kept and clean
and I wouldn't dare to hurt it
because it's special.
and if I could learn to love myself
the way that I love you
I'd learn to let the little things go
or enjoy them and celebrate
because flaws are important
and they matter.
I'd tuck myself in bed at night
and say I did my best
and that was enough for me
because maybe
finally
it is.
