When you’ve lived decades of your existence free and open.
pouring selflessly to the point of internal drought.
And finally. You learn and set healthy boundaries.
only the foundations aren't structurally strong.
and assaults are breaching from every angle.
And you run from weak spot to weak spot to reinforce and stabilize.
But it’s more than you even want to sustain.
Because there is peace in balance.
Balance comes with boundaries.
Let the breaches breach.
Let the walls break down.
Because, while that’s happening, your boundaries are building you steps.
Rise up and take your place as the best version of yourself.
without guilt
without regret
and without haste.
