Dear left breast

You’ve been with me so long

You grew through my teenage years

along with my sense of self

Femininity, developing personality

Did you define me?


You’ve been a part of me 

ever since I can remember 

Sadly never to suckle a baby

But in my twenties 

shown off on foreign beaches 

I’m proud of your shape and texture

I’ve never wanted to change you

Partners have stroked you

Lately you’ve been kissed and adored 

more than ever by a new lover

Is that why it’s so hard to let you go?

It’s time 

to thank you for being part of me

Time to let you go

Time to move on

to a new exciting summer 

Love 

         from 

                   Sarah
