make space for you

We are pulled, pushed, prodded, poked
in every direction - constantly.

WATCH ME! LOOK AT YOU!
HOLY COW THAT JUST HAPPENED!
PICK ME! PICK ME!

And whether that’s work,
Or a friend, or a neighbor-
We take all of our available space
& energy & brain cells

Gifted to others, selflessly
& then wonder why
We are so damn tired.

All we can do is tell our dreams
Tomorrow or someday
Or even the sneakiest one:
“Let me take a nap first.”

Here’s to using:

NOPE. No thanks. Not today.
& goodbye ~ more explicitly.

So that we can start
to make some space
for those dreams
& let our next opportunities
walk through our front doors

Because we finally have the space
to welcome them in with open arms.
