Space Holder- Poem 08/31/2023
When you’re there without being there…
Sometimes it’s hard to be what people may need you to be.
Sometimes what they need is not what you can offer.
Sometimes they’re not ready.
Sometimes you may have to be there for them in the distance, bridging the gap.
Sometimes you’re there, even when they think you’re not.
That’s what this poem from last year speaks about.
Space Holder
I love you, even if it’s not in the way you want or like right now
I love you when you can’t love yourself
I love you not because I am getting anything from it
I choose to stand behind you as I have done in the past
Having your back
Energetically, spiritually
Holding the space
Filling in the gap
Loving your essence unhampered
Seeing the beauty of your soul unfiltered
Who you were before life took out its vengeance on you
I don’t know who you are to me
