Sometimes I just need space

 Sometimes I just need space.

Not because I don’t love them
but because I do.
Because I want to keep loving them.

Because if I don’t take a breath,
if I don’t step away,
even for a moment,
I forget who I am beneath the mom, the wife, the everything-for-everyone.

A break doesn’t mean I’m ungrateful.
It means I’m human.
And I want to stay one who loves this family,
not one surviving them.
