I Will Be Better

By Christie White


I want to move.

To spin in circles on my lawn in the sun,

to dance, to use my breath and feel my muscles

To be happy

I want my body to feel loose and flowy but strong,

to lose the stiffness of work and aches of no sleep

and fear of what they could all mean.

I trust I am okay but I could be better.

I want to be so much better.

If I move, I will be better.
