Mind over matter

Mind over matter

I choose
To unchoose my body
Today.
It has been a burden
far too long.

A prison of meat and
An excuse for all the things
I never dared to do.
Not anymore.

I choose
To unchoose my body
Today.
For I don’t want it anymore
This way.

In my mind
There has always been a different me.
A body of light and air
And not this heavy weight.
A vehicle of speed
And not this clumsy hate.

I choose
To unchoose my body
Today.
I shall create a new one
Tomorrow.
