Big changes are coming
I’m making decisions
I don’t need to explain my choices to anyone
I will simply exist
And resist all the things that don’t serve me
I can’t respond right away and that’s okay
I have connections but I don’t need to stop everything to give information on the spot
They can wait
I’m not easy to access anymore
I’m tired of providing emotional labor and I won’t do it anymore
No more trauma dumping
From me or at me
I’m not perfect and I’m guilty of spilling
But that is going to stop right now
Big changes are coming
I’m going to need to reintroduce myself
And not care that I’ll be misunderstood
