time 🕰

i’m so generous with my time because it’s free,

or is it?

i am frugal, cheap, and stingy with

my money

my stuff

everything of value

except for my time.

people say, “you do so much!”

but to me it doesn’t really feel like much at all.

i only pay with my presence and

my time

i am hard on myself because i worry that i don’t give enough,

but i give plenty

of my time

you ask if i can go and the answer will always be yes

because i always seem to have the time

or rather, i so easily give it away.

i’m starting to wonder if my time is even mine

so much of it seems is owed to other people.

but what would i even do if i didn’t give people my time?

if i didn’t say yes to anything

if i was as stingy with my time as i am anything else

i think i'd be sad

what else do i have to offer if not,

my time.

what would i do if all my time was mine?

i’d do what i love

but, eventually that lead right back where we started

so maybe i’ll keep giving my time away.

not like i was gonna use it, anyway.

plus, it’s free.

isn’t it?
