I forget things.
I forget that I can do things.

I forget that even though I have no energy I can do things.

I can take a nap.
I can take a shower.
I can play with my cat.

I forget that even though I have no motivation I can do things.

I can watch tv.
I can do a puzzle.
I can roll out of bed.

I forget that even though I have a mental illness I can do things.

I can be happy.
I can love myself.
I can be worth loving.

Even if it takes time to remember
that I can.
