Murmur

Some days I want to curl up in a ball
And lay on the floor.
With the lights off
With the door shut
With nothing but myself
My thoughts
And silence.

Some days I want that
And some days I need that.
But it doesn’t mean I’m broken or miserable.
It doesn’t mean something is wrong.
It just means sometimes
I want to be alone.
I want to lay down in the stillness of me
And appreciate
My heartbeat.
