L.O.V.E. Notes: Introspection

Most see a finished product
how could she possibly look
or be any more amazing
it's easy to assume that
all I have to do is maintain
but I've never felt that way 
especially when the truth is
I don't feel as complete
there's still work to be done
work that goes far beyond
anything I can do at the gym
healing takes time 
but how much time  
no one ever really knows 
you just have to take it
moments like this one
sitting here alone 
give me that opportunity 
nothing I've ever lifted 
can compare to the weight 
of my own thoughts
and I remember the
last time I was broken 
I came back stronger
more determined than ever 
life is an exercise in itself
so I'm not a finished product
I'm a product of personal training
