Prakriti Panwar
New Delhi, India
In 2020,
I didn’t bake
Or cook
Or workout.
I didn’t
Force myself,
To be productive
Or prevent a burnout.
Instead I,
Shamelessly took
Several breaks
And gave myself a chance.
A chance to
Rest, breathe,
enjoy my company
and make it last.
Instead of learning
Something new,
I discovered
A part of myself.
A part I wanted
To nurture, heal
Caress and help.
