On the Floor

The floor and cabinets and walls and I are too familiar.
Always faithful to hold my weight.

It’s just another day.
A little rainy Thursday.
Mood to fit.

I slept wrong so my arm hurts.
Still adjusting to being back at work.
Remy is too.

Maybe it’s the culmination of it all.
I am tired.
All the time.

And today I’m on the floor.

Overwhelmed.
Sad but grateful.

How did I end up here?
Another question without a satisfactory answer.

It’s never how you think it’s gonna be.
Your life.
At least mine hasn’t been.

But I wouldn’t change it.

I am also wondering if and when I’ll run out of gas.

Good thing these cabinets and this floor can hold the heaviness.
