SEEING ME

I took a picture

Sent it to my boyfriend

My first thought was

I look familiar

Like Jigsaw

Weird cheeks

Big lips

Strange…

Full stop

You look like a person

Like someone loved

Who also loves

You look like a mom

Like a girlfriend

A daughter, A friend

You look like the lady

Who puts on your makeup

And sings off key to you

And gives you advice

Making you laugh

And sometimes cry

She’s sort of funny

And she’s comfortable

And fairly kind

She’s you

And you love her
