I can choose
a tiredness which brims from exhaustion
doing one’s best yet coming up short
or it seems so, anyway
no one really knows the entirety
but it’s warm now, summer’s here
and I’d rather not accept what I don’t have to
I can choose
three words nearly as strong as “I love you”
truly just another way to say “I love
myself”

“I’d rather not accept what I don’t have to” – love that line! Well done.
I like this one Deb! I love myself!
