Trying to navigate these bumpy waves, While maintaining my gaze with my goals. It's more difficult than the past me could've ever known. There's a long dotted line that swerves along my map. I've marked each stop for when I'll take naps, but I'm still struggling with unexpected crashes. A wave flips my boat and and it feels like a million minutes go by Before I patch things up and things feel okay inside. It feels like a tear in my map, the map that lines my heart. How do you recover when someone from your crew falls overboard? What if something embarrassing happens during my journey and I can't press restart? These are the kinds of questions I stay up all night asking the stars.

Map of my Heart
Trying to navigate these bumpy waves, While maintaining my gaze with my goals. It's more difficult than the past me could've ever known. There's a long dotted line that swerves along my map. I've marked each stop for when I'll take naps, but I'm still struggling with unexpected crashes. A wave flips my boat and and it feels like a million minutes go by Before I patch things up and things feel okay inside. It feels like a tear in my map, the map that lines my heart. How do you recover when someone from your crew falls overboard? What if something embarrassing happens during my journey and I can't press restart? These are the kinds of questions I stay up all night asking the stars.
