Poetry

Oh today

How you drained me of my energy

Starting from my head to my whole body

Rest was all I wanted and all I could afford to do today.

There were moments of strength and weakness, and I moved as necessary.

I am glad to have this day of rest, as I look forward to getting something done tomorrow.

Today made me realize I needed to slow down and take my time or truly rest, for taking care of myself is essential.

I know what I need to do tomorrow, but for now, I will rest and focus on being in the present moment.
