Made of Stars

Made Of Stars

By: Medha V.


I am reminded


I am made of stardust


Of pure radiance


And light


My body’s imperfections


Are planetary design


And these scars, and this body


Is a reminder I’m divine


My insecurity is my only flaw


As everyone gazes at me


It isn’t in disgust but in awe


My love for myself is my own written law


In regards to those words of daggers


I turn up my nose


Because in my heart of hearts


I know what truly matters
