keep moving



the feeling of defeat
the feeling of triumph

sometimes you get lost.
sometimes you have to walk confidently in any direction

sometimes you have to fight
yourself.
FOR yourself
fight with yourself 
fight to let go of the expectations
to slowly shed them
to let time be
to be

sometimes you feel
ruined for life 
again

sometimes you feel
a taste of home

not a bitter taste
but a sweet taste

sometimes you don't

and its lonely
bare
uncomfortable
fragile

if you look for the light daily
even if its a speck

it changes things
you honor the feeling
let your body feel it too

which takes patience with yourself
grace
and love
self-love

when am I going to feel it again?
Its the feeling of arriving
the freedom

what are you arriving to?
who are you arriving to?

is there a timeline?
no cariño there isn't
there never was 

so give yourself the time
make the space
sit with it
give yourself permission

it may be a while
but it won't be forever

keep moving
you're already there
