Love yourself, Be Kind - Inktober 2018 day 10

Love yourself, be kind 

It’s misty in the morning,
I can’t see too far ahead of me,
And I am trying to be kind.
Holding myself together, 
As I stumble through the fog,
And I’m trying not to lose my mind.

“Love yourself,” they say, 
As if it’s just that easy,
But I’m trying a little sympathy, 
Watching myself carefully,
And trying to be kind to my mind. 

The thing is,
I know the mist is due to shift, 
By lunchtime there’ll be sun,
And the weather won’t reflect my state of my mind.
But in storm and sun and shadow, 
I should watch myself and love myself, 
Set aside dangerous behaviours, 
And put myself above myself,
So I will hold myself together, 

And I will try to be kind.
