Moving On

A poem about self-love after heartbreak

I will love again

This I know

Because I am loving myself now

Slowly and fearlessly

I am finding the curvature of my own body intoxicating

Delighting in every time my mouth opens to laugh

And holding my own hands as if they were my lover’s

But you will not love again

This I know

Not at least until you can love yourself
