God,
I don’t know what I need
I don’t know what we need
The world
is not as it should be
My soul hurts
I am hurt
scared
overwhelmed with emotions
and I don’t know what I need
Because
there is no way
to fix this
Trust has been
broken
again
More
has been
uncovered
apocalyptically
And at this moment
the work
seems to be
too much
And so
I make time
to hug by beloveds
To
Breathe In: I Exist
Breathe Out: That is enough
To remind myself
That the very existence
of difference
joy
grace
love
solidarity
Is an act of resistance
So definitely,
today
That is enough
Breathe in: I exist
Breathe out: That is enough
Tomorrow
or Sometime Soon
I will build more community
Maybe figure out more
what it is
we need
Today
I will breathe
I exist
That is enough
