Let Her Breathe

i’ve been through this all before, i swear
i remember all the heartbeats
i remember all the hours
i remember all the roots & flowers & thorns

life can simply be so hard
when your heart is a sand castle
& your love has come high tide
& my head is on fire
for you

i have named every star & then
i have named them all again
i remember all the colors
i remember the dark
i remember all the times i felt broken
but i can’t remember how i got taped up
