You Are Allowed

You are allowed
To be tired
You are allowed
To work around the clock
You are allowed
To miss family functions + 1000 dinners
You are allowed

I am allowed
To change my mind
I am allowed
To want more
I am allowed
To ask for more + know that you can’t show up

I am allowed
To surrender
I am allowed
To fear losing it all
I am allowed
To begin again
I am allowed
