A letter to my mind

Why can’t you love me for who
I am
Instead of who 
you want
me to be

Will carrying your
daily stress
and surviving without the nutrients
I need
ever be enough

All I want is to be
healthy strong
To carry us to the 
highest mountains
and swim through the 
deepest seas

Will you please show me around 
the world
try new foods 
in Rome 
and new drugs
in Ibiza
I promise to always give you
my all

But all you want 
from me
is to 
keep 
getting
smaller

-your body
