downtime

If it’s my downtime now,
where I move slower than I hope to be,
or if I am not flourishing as best as I wish to be,
then let it be it.

Just because I see other girls doing it all much better,
or just because I am not as what is expected of me,
so what?

I matter;
my well-being matters most.

It may be downtime now,
but this won’t last for long.

I am taking my time.
