September

Forgive me
If I am only holding space for myself
If my arms have only enough room
To hold my own hurt
I am looking inward
Fighting through to the belief
That hope is worth holding onto.

    I adore this. Sometimes, it is hardest to step back and focus on ourselves, on healing and loving ourselves. But it's crucial. It's okay to have the space be only for us at the time. That message of hope and trying to grasp it so that it's more than a momentary thing.
