The Tough Love I Give My Vagina
I’ve shaved you
And cut myself in the process
I’ve waxed you and ripped your hairs out by the root
I’ve stuffed you full of cotton on strings
And I’ve stuffed you with lots of other things
I’ve been ashamed of how you look
Because I didn’t see that you were unique
You are delicate, but you are also tough and I forget this
I try to appreciate you for what you are
Smooth
Hairy
Delicate and tough
When you bleed sometimes
I stuff you with cotton on a string
When you don’t, I stuff you with other things
You’re my vagina, and I wish I’d been nicer
But I give you tough love
Because you’re my vagina.
