to just be 
minolta 7000 / fomapan 100 b&w
if there are days where you feel 
your body is too tired 
to fill the room with laughter
and good stories
in the way your heart wants to,
it is оkау
to not be 
all you feel 
you have to be, 
and focus on breathing, 
and being,
knowing that even when you are quieter
and your smile comes a ittle slower
you are not empty.
you are not not any less significant.
you are a traveler on a journey 
who is Simply in need 
of rest
in the arms of the kind of peace 
where she is tree
to just be.
