Grind

i'm learning to both 

be sensitive to my body

while also the boss

what all sensitive looks like

i never go and excercise

just rest and rest

and feel more tired

what all bossy looks like

i never rest and slow down

just run and run

tasting the blood

in my mouth

somewhere in the middle

is that sweet spot

being kind to myself

while doing the hard things

i can accomplish 

new skills 

when starting slow

and not giving up

along the way

i start loving 

more and more

the grind

for the joy 

that i find 

in the process

and along the way
