I long for them To frolic freely without a worry To come home at night without school work I long for them to play in
You two need to get on a treadmill, you saywe two are washing dishes, making chai facing away from youYou two are standing behind us,
I hold you and you close to my heart warm warmth gooey love against my chest tiny faces, racing heartbeats button noses similar to mine
I. Brown eyes / sketched in dreams that feed upon the bluest sky hair / unruly in its stretch to reach the greenest valleys
