Pockets of Peace 🌸



It's been a hustle, 
Well, when is it not, right?
But lately,
Life is a few steps ahead,
With me trying to play catch up, 
Breathlessly running behind.

Sun rises and sets, 
As it's meant to everyday.
The inbetween is a blur most days,
Where did all the time go away?

Amidst all the struggle to juggle,
I'm trying to find my pockets of peace.
Maybe its the wisdom,
That comes free,
With the evening of my thirties!

I am trying,
To prioritise myself.
To tune in to my needs.
To celebrate my own wins.
To embrace my insecurities.

I am learning,
It's OK to say 'No' at times.
Its OK to disappoint.
Its OK to not be able to help.
Its OK to give in to my wants.

I am practicing,
To cancel out the noises,
That fog my mind.
To appreciate the goodness,
Of all kind.
To be fine with the fact that, 
Not all problems need a fix.
To be grateful for life,
The good, the ugly and the entire mix.

Life is as simple or complex,
As you make it to be.
I like mine seasoned,
With my little pockets of peace✌🏻
