Costs

no one knows
what it took
to get here,
they never will,

our costs are our own -
branded to our souls -
their receipts
will be laid at the feet
of no other,

no one else will pay
for our choices

Pace

one day at a time,
one moment,
one step,
no matter how heavy,
this is the pace
at which
we must take our lives,

moving any faster
leaves us spinning,
our wheels sinking
deeper into the mire,
grasping at air,
never moving forward

Stress

anguish pulls at my chest,
it is a persistent tugging,
there is pain

what is born in the mind
is borne by the body

I know this
still I won't allow myself
to know peace

this flaw -
one of my many -
I would correct
by letting go
the weight of those cares
created by my mind
that live beyond my control
