If I Loved Myself Sooner: A Self-Love Poem
A short self-love poem on the life that might have been — and the quiet reminder that the only place self-love is still available is right now.
A small one. The kind of question that visits late at night.
I wonder too
What life could have been
If I loved myself sooner
And nurtured what’s within
You can wonder. You can even grieve a little for the version that didn’t happen. But you can’t go back and do it. The only place self-love is still available is the one you’re standing in. Start there.
