The week has been difficult.

I had to focus on work

I had to learn to work on myself

And focus on my loved ones

Sometimes I think I overstretch myself

The need to be loved

to be needed

it’s like if I don’t

will you text me?

will you call me?

do you wonder how my soul is

am I at peace?

I take a moment to watch the sunset

breathe in the cold air

breathe out the self-doubt,

the uncertainty,

the anxiety,

the stress.

Tomorrow is a new week.

Tomorrow is my chance to do it all over again.

Do it better.

Centering my needs and radiating love.

this week was difficult

and next week will be difficult.

I haven’t been able to write this past week and I’m still struggling.

The uncertainty in the air is shocking.

I’ve meditated but still seem to breathe it in no matter how many deep breaths I take.

Anxiety is more of a best friend now,

I try to reason with it to calm down but it invades my house and my fridge.

It sits on my couch and dictates what we will do.

As a loyal friend, I listen and do as I am told.
