Everything
In its entirety
Has beenToo
Much
But I bear it all
Because she bore it all
With grace
With dignity
With powerEntirely too much
Nothing
Is happening
Everything
Is moving
Things
Are changing
And its just beenToo
Much
I doubt
If I'm truly built for this
I doubt
If I'll ever get through this
But she did
And it didn't break her
So it won't break meShe walked the path
That had too much
Happening too soon
Made it smooth
For those coming behind her
Taking notes from those who went before herBut still
Everything
In it's entirety
Has beenToo
Much
And so I continue
To bear it all
To soothe her pain
To ease her load
As she did before
And as they did for her
Passing down resilience
Sending forth determination
Because they knew it'd beToo
Much
Perhaps it's been
Too much
Too soon
But I will push through
For those who come after me
Even for those who are with meSo no longer
Should anything
Be too much to bear
I'm not alone
So the weight
Will not break me
Instead, it will shape me
Shape us
Move us
In tandemEverything
In it's entirety
Has beenToo
Much
But I am ready
We are ready
That change we wish
To see in the world
Resides in me
Resides in us
Flowing to the masses
As we give them
What the world gave usEntirely
Too
Much
👀 ello luv!
Just a little something that is quite possibly an accurate description of how I'm feeling right now.
Hope we're taking care of ourselves in the best and safest ways we can 🤗.
Leave some thoughts and see you in the next one 💖
