You’ve lived in that body
All your life
Felt it grow
Know each muscle
Each bone
Every scar
You know its weakness
Its strength.
You’ve lived in that brain
All your life
Made a choice
Changed your mind
Each regret
Every dream
You know how you think
It’s hope.
You’ve never seen who you are
All your life
Never known the real reason
The women who want you
The men who’ll follow you
The powerful who need you
It’s love.
