But I do not have stars on my body

Naked love

there are stars on her body i say to myself one day i will have stars on my body.

one day i will have stars on my body. and my lover will find me past the white sheet i envelope my flesh in.

the white sheet i envelope my flesh in drags on the floor to my exit away from the light of his eyes. my shy feet are so beautiful i think. tender to all the nights of electricity fleeing away, fleeing away from the man who knows my skin.

my shy feet are so beautiful i think. my hands so playful, my lips lush skies of saturated red, my hair so engrossed with its beauty of rivers and rivers of a raven feather.

but i do not have stars on my body. and my white sheet runs deep. my lover’s room is a sun drenched territory and i am his naked lover looking for her stars in the dark.

This is not the kind of rebellion you would expect for the below prompt by Ashley Evenson but it is on its way. It is on its way….All the lovers know it: it is only its way. #bodyshamerebellion
