Will my heart be thicker / And less full of fear / And will my heart beat quicker / This time next year

Where'd my breath go ?

[annacswenson]

My heart feels tired, like

Love is a sport.

Mostly I am tired, exhausted from not sleeping

My worried heart wakes me like a young child at random hours of the night,

Needing comforting

Maybe that's what I'll do,

Do what it takes to feel beautiful

And sleep, sleep sleep.
