I do not need the old room
To call my name again
I do not need the mirror
To tell me where I end
I have been every version
That someone else could keep
Now I stand in the quiet
With nothing left to please
I am not fixed
I am not new
I am only closer
To what I knew
My hands are open
My breath is clean
I take up space
And let it mean
This is not a rescue
This is not a light
This is just my body
Coming home tonight
No borrowed outline
No smaller dream
I am finding slowly
A shape that belongs to me
I can leave it folded
I can let it stay
I can love the past
And still walk away
I can be gentle
I can be wide
I can be quiet
And still be mine
This is not a rescue
This is not a light
This is just my body
Coming home tonight
No borrowed outline
No need to be
Anything smaller
Than what lives in me
I am not leaving myself
To be loved more easily
I am not leaving myself
To be loved more easily
I am finding slowly
A shape that belongs to me

Shape That Belongs to Me
Elura Mott
Elura Mott's debut album, Dress That No Longer Fits, is a quiet record about realizing that the lover, the work, the family expectations, and the past self that once seemed to suit you no longer feel right against your skin
Nothing has been ruined
Nothing has to be hated
It simply feels a little too tight for who you are now
Instead of pretending it still fits, Elura begins to trust the discomfort her body has been carrying, gently finding her way back to a shape that belongs to her
