I’ll Tie a Ribbon Around My Finger

Sometimes it gets hard to breathe.

Sometimes that's because so many things are happening all at once that I forget about breathing.

Sometimes it's because I forget about how to want to breathe.

I want to remember. I want to remember so bad it hurts.

I want it so bad and it hurts so bad that the wanting and the hurting get so big that I forget everything else.

And then it gets hard to breathe.
