A Work Stoppage

When I choose to cease,
There can I truly begin.
When I decide to rest,
Maybe my struggles will end.
But if they don’t,
That will still be OK,
Because maybe I need to give up anyway.

Slow down.
Take a breath.
Realize that there’s not much left
To lose or even gain
By keeping inside
All of the hurt and the pain.

Peace.
Be still.
