My Best is Enough

Hey there Precious little ones Look around you in this home This is our home We make the rules Don't forget that This is our home You're not wrong for how you do things And neither am I We can work together You're no messy lazy, kid Come out with me to play Come out with me to make our home something we love Struggling to get a shower Struggling to get dressed Everything holds so much power With the guilt we get Moving feels like glaciers Cold, freezing us in place Fear of what we'll do wrong But fear of being seen Quickly trying to disappear But hey, I want you here You're not the cupboard kid waiting for everyone to go to bed Hey I want you here Oh, darling ones I know you're scared of what it all means Look around us Touch the wall, a chair a door knob These belong to us Look at what we did for you All for you to have fun and heal So the place is looking messy right now We'll clean it when we feel better I know we will I trust you I love you I give this all to you Struggling to get a warm meal Struggling to hydrate Everything feels too early or too late With the guilt we carry Moving feels like glaciers Cold, freezing us in place Fear of what we'll do wrong But fear of being seen Quickly trying to disappear But hey, I want you here You're not the cupboard kid waiting for everyone to go to bed The soldiers, the critters, the fae and the creatures Whatever you may be Hey I want you here And if work feels too overwhelming We're allowed to rest People don't make rules in our life anymore You're the boss of your part of the body Tell me what you'd love And we will make it Because we want you here And Look around us Touch the wall, a chair a door knob These belong to us Look at what we did for you All for you to have fun and heal So the place is looking messy right now We'll clean it when we feel better I know we will I trust us I love ys He gave this all to us Protectors rise up for their little ones
