I would have loved you.
Even if you had my frizzy hair your father's nose my cellulite and his knobbly knees my stubbornness his temper my anxiety his depression your grandmother's hearing loss your papa's male pattern baldness I would have loved you Even if you were the worst parts of all of us Stitched into a patchwork of faults and flaws A tarnished canvas that this harsh world would have tried its damned hardest to reject But I With all my heart With all my mind From deep inside my empty belly I would have loved you, Endlessly.
