Maybe You
An Ode to the Conflicted
This is for the peeps who think they’re too old for this bullshit.
It’s like you’re ready to shine but afraid of the light.
You want to be seen but feel guilty about taking up space.
You’re tired of struggling but find comfort in disappointment.
You crave excite and want growth to be perfect.
You have wounds to heal from but have branded the scars as your personality.
You want to say NO but are tethering your worth with the YES.
You want more opportunities but you step aside assuming it belongs to someone else.
You are exhausted but you also call deprivation your home.
You want to break the cycle but get discouraged at the first sight of friction.
Maybe it’s time, not to rewrite your story, but accept the version that you’re currently living.
Because maybe life isn’t about creating.
Maybe it’s simply about honoring what is there…without judgment or regret.
