Just take a break.
It’s only natural.
Rest your eyes
have a nap
stretch out.
Relax
no one can blame you
if you take a break.

Take it slow.
Have a rest.
Cool your jets.
Warm yourself
under covers
in the dark.
Keep it slow.

You don’t have to strive and struggle
every minute of every day.
Not every part of you needs to pump
jump
bump into barriers
harrying carriers
up and down your street.
Just breathe.
Slow your feet.
You can pace yourself.
Sleep.

Calm yourself.
Take a breath.
Hear the birds.
Enjoy the time.
Take a break.
Please
take a break.
