Goldilocks

penned December 2023.

one day I'll feel
Just Right
instead of
Too Much or
Not Enough
I'll stop asking for
permission to take up space
and never again feel sorry
for existing in totality
I neither want to
shrink myself
for your comfort
nor rely on
your approval
to expand
I want you to hold me
if and only if
you can value
my chaos and calm
and be ready
to handle my energy
willing to see me
at my worst
and able to hold me whole.
