My body aches.
Parts I didn't even know existed.
I'm expanding. I'm contracting.
A metamorphosis
taking place inside of me.
At moments it feels
like I'm slowly fading out.
Where did my reflection go?
Who's that person in the mirror?
We stare at each other all morning.
Body and soul, naked.
"You are beautiful", I tell him.
"You are beautiful", he replies.
