Pondering the difference
Between letting go and giving up
When I need something to hold onto

Doing “self-care” but I get so wiped out
Waiting for the current to drive me away

Check the expectations of others – Where do I hide these feelings? Why was she so mean?

So tired of being tired each day

Made a list of happy times
Things I’d like in past times
Is this useful or a trap?

So made a list of things to do
When feeling “this”
But find I’m bored
And reminisce simply that I’m blue

Acknowledgment of art and pain
Respect and fellowship
Simply to be loved and adored
“Is that too much to ask?”
