Hey Readers!
This piece isn't super long or in depth as they've been for a few months. I sort of just wanted to have fun with using some of the things I cherish the most in my day-to-day routine. Maybe there is someone out there who has a similar list to my own! Whatever gets you to a healthier version of yourself each day, try listing them and tailoring them as the rest of the year goes by. They may be useful in helping your mood. Good vibes to you all!
Leave me to my things
"Things," like my poetry
Flowing like your words trying to regulate what you don't understand
Or want to understand about me
Leave me to my things
"Things," like my books
Engaging me more than the reality I am faced with as I see the world
Become even more confusing to grasp
Leave me to my things
"Things," like my music
Capturing my appreciation better than you whining for attention
Because what I like doesn't "appeal to you personally"
Leave me to my things
"Things," like my naps
Revitalizing me so that I have the energy to deal with anything
That may disrupt my spirit
I need these things, for they help me get by
I can maintain a piece of myself even when
All is busy and congested
I confess, these are my "things"
I intend to keep them and cultivate them
To be a better version of myself for
Tomorrow
Today
Forever
A well and loving piece of mind
To help each day become exactly what I hope
What I dream
To reach every star
And break all doubt
May you keep your "things," and they bring you
Peace
Love
Health
And more opportunity to be who you want
Whether it's a poem
A book
Music
Napping
Keep it and don't let it go
Allow only the "things" that will help you grow
All others should fall away
So that you can one day
Make your own way
So leave me to my things
"Things," being what allow me to be
Me
