Stop & Begin

By: Tiffany Tunsil

I sit here wondering what is going to happen next

I sit here wondering who is coming next

I sit here wondering if I will ever breathe again

I sit here wondering if I even matter at all

I sit…I sit…. I sit

Now is my time to not think

Now is my time to savor the moment

Now is my time to begin

Now is the time to recognize that I am a being and have worth

Now is the time to arise.
