Meet me where happiness doesn’t feel like a false spring.

SCHUYLER

Believe Better Choice Forever Myself Remember
I sit on the bare floor, leave my palms unturned, and watch relief pool into one hand, and uncertainty in the next. I will try not to lean more one way or another, but let them hold each other as company.
