HOSPITAL

Finally, some relief.

Hospital………..

Now it’s a different struggle.

The juggle.

Holding all the balls in the air.

Work full time.

Two houses.

Three dogs.

Two cats.

Fish.

School.

Work says it supports people through crisis.

Reality is quieter.

You must be transparent to ask for flexibility.

But not too transparent.

Because honesty

can become liability.

You learn where the line is.

Motion is mercy.

Routine is survival.

And somewhere inside that noise,

hope keeps breathing.
