I count down the days
Like I count cocktails
Eventually, you hit the limit
And need to start over

Five days, four days

Hold my breath
For another wave
Try to forget
I asked for this

My body feels weak
But I wonder if my heart
Has gotten stronger
They say muscles need to tear
Before they grow

And they say there is a calm
Both before and after the storm
(And also in the eye
So where am I?)

With Love,
Natalie
