Black Girl Magic

I envied those I loved. 
I lay wretched as my magic healed and comforted them 
Them barely warming my finger 

I never thought I would experience the magic of being loved.
I yearned and waited for the healing and comfort of another’s love

I filled the desire of love with the pacification of my body’s wishes
My wanton body made me forget the magic I longed for. 

The love I gave was the love I needed to show to myself
The magic they consumed greedily now healing me, I fall in love each day as I discover the true depth of my magic. My love feels like a warm blanket, on a chilly night, like a smile in the middle of tears. 

I am healing and comforted by my love as I grow into this awesome ass woman.
