#019 ━ she

❛ and yet, she persisted
despite the odds stacked against her, and the feeling of wanting to drown in the sheets that covered her bed

and still, she braved through the sleepless nights in the dark, going out into the light of the kitchen and walking out with a hot cup coffee that dated the dark bags under her eyes every morning

and all day she walks around with an empty stomach craving for food and her deepest desires,
but also with heavy hands that are always working but never motivated enough to fulfill her dreams

take a look in the mirror . . is she you? ❜
