Rest

When there is just so much you can handleYou curl up to a deep sleep to manageThe grueling pain that you couldn't showOne by one, little by little, time and againYou pick each piece and bear a smileTo be a light to help the love of your lifeBut, there is a moment you must let … Continue reading Rest

My Thoughts are All Over the Place
