Published: Sept. 3, 2023, 2:43 p.m.

\nSo, I wrapped myself
\ntightly in a silk cocoon.
\n
\nAnd I told myself that
\nthe only way I was going
\nto survive was if I slowed
\ndown my healing and I gently
\nreasoned with all my being.
\n
\nBecause to reason with yourself
\nis to reflect, and to reflect must
\nalways start with rest.
