No matter how much of a people’s person you are,
take a day or two for yourself because
everyone needs time –
time to not burn out,
time to gather their thoughts,
time to decide,
time to stop chasing, and
time to take flight.
You may think that you don’t need it,
but,
only when you’ve exhausted your energy,
unable to breathe and almost about to fall apart,
you will understand how important it is
to get some space to catch yourself
before the big fall and come back up.
If you think you can keep running,
there is only so much of running you can do before
these nagging problems will catch up to you.
But, trust me and take your space and
all the time you need because
none of the questions requires an answer
today or tomorrow.
Grow at your own pace
in your space
with lots of grace,
and, here I shall rest my case!
