Sometimes, after the long, long meetings
Any question makes me burst into tears
When I’m off-camera, at my desk
Laughing at myself while all that pent up emotion
Spills over
Answer the question
Go for a run
It’s too cold to appreciate all the beauty
But I see the sky in the distance
Spread orange, just for a few minutes
Although my brain spins
With feedback I want to give
And words I should want to string together
It is better to move, than to sink
Better to shiver and sweat
It doesn’t fix anything, not really
But at least I remember that I am more
Than the words I type out
I am a body who can run
Who can move through the world
And not just a slack conversation
With Love,
Natalie
