And, Yes


And, yes there are moments when I am sad
because that’s human
that’s reality
some days your cells ask for something 
that you cannot give
or the clouds fill you with silence
or you are standing there with nothing to say
but,
I will not let it consume me
I will swim in it
and drink the water
and be sad
but I will not drown
i will find hope again
just not now
not today
