There is room for you

"There is Room for You" -loosely inspired by the Tagore poem of the same title

There is room for you here.

There is room
for the way you dress and
the way you move 
and the way you talk with your voice
and eyes
and hands.
There is room for who you are
and who you want to be.

There is room for the way you smile
and the way you laugh,
and there is room for your sadness too.
There is room for you to say that it is not okay
and that you need help.

There is room for you here.

There is room for the ones who love you,
room for the stories and hurts,
and room for healing.
There is room for the way you whisper
and the way you yell
and the way you say 
you need more room,
and there is room for you to get it.

There is room for you here.
This space is not too small.
The world is not too small.
There is room for you here.

There is room for you.
