You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. -Dr. Seuss

This must be serenity. 

So unfamiliar

But it feel so right 

Something as simple as

Petting the kitten asleep next to me

My kitten. 

Her name is Luna

Maybe they’re all right?

Could I really deserve all this?

It’s peace. 

I’m use to the insanity of rushing through a day

The urgency of having to get to the next thing

Never stopping to embrace the moments

The moments that form memories

Today I’m welcoming the calmness

Like a long lost friend

Not worrying about this imaginary shoe

Wondering when it’ll drop

It’ll drop when it drops

I’ll get through it like I’ve gotten through it 

With guidance and acceptance

That’s whatever happens

My god’s got me. 

Finding my feelings

Learning they’re okay to have

Expressing them

Instead of suppressing them

Mentally it’s still a struggle 

Taking the advice 

Asking for guidance 

I’m better prepared today 

To face life than I was yesterday

Praying I never get complacent

Keep growing

Keep evolving 

Because I am a better person

Today more than yesterday 

But not as good I will be tomorrow
