13 years old, I sit on my bed, chubby and pale. With my headphones that wrap behind the ear. I play (Down with The Sickness) by Disturbed. I bang my awkward head up and down. I stare at my little league trophies.

The fact that like every animal has to sleep. No life forms have figured out how to conquer sleep. Sleep is so good. Koalas sleep like 20 hours a day. Cats!? Forget about it they be out all the time. They ain't trying to climb the corporate ladder they trying to find a sun beam.

I Love you more than you could ever know.
