On some days,
getting out of bed
proves to be a difficult task
and pretty much impossible.
Your body could feel weak
and your mind could be tired.
The sleep you just had,
it barely helped.
The exhaustion you feel
keeps you in that bed.
For those days,
maybe you should
let yourself stay in bed.
Take it as a rest day –
call in sick,
then don’t think about
work or school,
homework or meetings.
Just rest and let yourself heal.
Stay in and eat takeout
as you watch your favourite movie.
Take a very long shower
and maybe give yourself a facial.
Wear only your pyjamas
and do everything that relaxes you.
And if what relaxes you
is doing nothing,
then do that too.
Just as long as you
make a promise to yourself
to use that day off
as the motivation to
get out of bed the next day.
