I must be crossing new borders
Because I feel
So tired

I am desperately
Avoiding
How I am feeling

Wanting to cut away
From the inertia
Of my inertia

The good words were...
Actively endure
Believe in a better future...

Yet this is the hardest part
To believe

The reason why
I do not know

Part of me wants
To sabotage what I want
What I have created
And so I cry

Protect what you have created!
Celebrate it
Nurture it
Keep nurturing it
Work on it

Even if you take
Just one step forward

Find a way to focus on what you are doing
Do not listen to the voice that wants to topple you

Keep listening to and amplify
The voice that loves you

Find a way to praise yourself
And revere your potential

Live with the confidence of a bird

Constantly improve
On what you are offering

Yearn
Yearn
Yearn

Don’t believe the voice that says you are not capable
Because you are

Keep things simple
Tell things as they are

Find a way forward
Advance where you can

Even a tiny step
Will help
