Wrote this poem once for someone special & thought I’d share it with you


Even though sometimes you aren’t feeling great
I hope you know that that’s perfectly okay
You don’t have to be on top everyday
Just take life for what it is
As it can be tricky
Way too busy
Overwhelming
Or something missing

You can’t be present everywhere
Or be the person to care
about everyone
but yourself

So pat yourself on the back
zoom out
take a rest
close your eyes and take a breath

They know how hard you’re trying
They see you do your best
But you are the one
putting yourself up to the test
You don’t have to prove yourself
or explain your reasons why
You are good enough and loved
But there’s only so much you can take
And that’s perfectly okay
