catherine pool - Inside herself

She crawled inside herself today,
to see what others see.
She used to think it was outer beauty,
that others loved in me.
I am so much more than my breasts my hair my legs.
MUCH to HIS dismay-
I think, I feel, I love, I hurt.
You never wanted me this way.
Now it's time to part our paths.
Doesn't matter what you say.
I am old enough to know myself
And my heart will say goodbye someday.
