Taking out the Trash​​​​​​​​

Every day it gets heavier and heavier
Filled with so many things,
Some worn,
Some broken,
Some depleted,
Some just gone
But not really
Never REALLY
There are containers for the e m p t y
Scraps of what might be thought lost
Some of the worn, the broken,
Can be used again, differently
Recycled, not t o s s e d
If one is clever enough to recognize
That things have different uses
Something that is broken in one way
In another might be PRIZED
It is important to accept your limitations
Your struggles, your challenges
But at the same time
It is Important to understand
That limitations can be an excuse
YOUR excuse
To squint
To see new light
And then to O P E N your eyes FULLY
And realize
You are limitless
