i don't think you notice
when anxiety meets devotion
it creates in you
the gentlest and kindest care
attentive as if only one creature can exist at a time
focused intently on the wellbeing of one fragile creature.
one single kitten in the world is so lucky.
maybe you don't realize
you oscillate between feverish work pace
and a casual exhaustion
because you refuse to disappoint anyone
move heaven and hell to produce
and then fall to earth exhausted
as soon as its not important.
i think you must hate mistakes
because you fix them so quickly
even when they are not your fault.
strangely though, blame does not
appear to influence you much at all
except occasionally to make you indignant
perhaps rightfully so.
in your tireless devotion to self improvement
and herculean ability to shed bad habits,
i hope you take the time to notice
right here, right now,
in this moment
you are perfect
just the way you are.
You
