Teach your mouth
That it's just as important to be able
to speak the word “yes”
As it as to be able to say the word
“no”
Teach your body
That it's just as important to hold on
to someone tight
And to let someone hold you and touch
you
As it is to let go
What it really comes down to is
Teach your heart
Teach your soul
Teach yourself to love again
Teach yourself that it's okay to be
loved too
Teach your lips to kiss a man
Or a woman
Or whoever the hell you feel like
kissing
Teach your hands to stop pushing away
That not everyone is dangerous
And not everyone will hurt you
Teach your mind
Teach your mind to allow itself to heal
Allow yourself to heal
Be healed
