i hate this stupid body,
and all it represents.
the shape, the size, the nature,
all this i resent.
i hate this stupid body,
i hate the way it feels,
the way it reacts when tickled,
with "happy," laughing squeels.
i hate this stupid body,
the memories it holds,
i hate all the sensations,
tingling hots and colds.
i hate this stupid body,
the way it shakes and quivers,
how when someone touches,
they leave me here in shivers.
i hate this stupid body,
that listens to my mind
telling me to hurt myself,
it's really so unkind.
i hate this stupid body,
and all it represents.
the shape, the size, the nature,
all this i resent.
Wow, it's crazy how much this poem is true for me even though I wasn't abused. (or... well... whatever.) Anyway, you just reminded me -- I think I'm going to write a tickling post soon.
