Light and Perspective

This morning,

I stood in my power

accepted my bitch

and felt whole.

Green is my power color.

I adorned my green eyes

in green, teal, and pink powder

and iced my lashes in blue.

Emanating.

Then, I moved into the next moments of my day

where the light had changed

and then, I saw

an exhausted painted face

of a person who spent

most of their spoons.

Reminding me of the preciousness of spending time.
