Who told you that you were inadequate?
That your desires were sickening?
That your ambitions were trite?
That your needs were un-meetable?
That love only comes when you do something right?
Who told you that your eyelids weren't worthy of framing your vision?
To pour bleach in the bathtub to lighten your skin?
That your legs were monstrous, instead of miracles in motion?
That the gap between your teeth warranted anything but awe?
Who tore up your trust?
Who extinguished your faith?
Who duped you into thinking that you are not stardust?
Who filled your head with this crushing cacophony?
Who led you away from your center, your light?
Who groomed you for fear, and silence, and shame?
Who’s stopping you, now?
This is your game.
