I didn't love me

I didn't love me
Till you loved me
Artlessly.

I didn't see myself
Till you saw me
Without judgment.

I was broken
Till you told me
I was perfect.

I didn't accept me
Till you accepted me as I was
Scars and all.

This body was senseless
Till you brought it to senses
With your senses.

I didn't trust me
Till you loved me
Doubtlessly.
