today I would like
to be ok
to be able to wake up
look forward
face the day
today could be different
i could smile
look around without fear
stay and chat for a while
today I could not lose myself
in a cocoon of self indulgence
masquerading as ‘me’ time
that just means hiding ‘me’ from the world
today I could seize the moment
feel the sun and simply...feel
be what today meant me to be
instead if pushing today away
to curl up in the shadows
today could be that day
the day to be ok
or maybe tomorrow...
