Heart Brain
give your group chat a funny name
count the street lights on long car rides
give the squirrels a small basket of acorns
even though they won’t eat them
buy the thrift store purse
even if you don’t know what to wear with it
paint a picture of your backyard
even if it’s not that good
jump in a big puddle
even though your socks will be wet
compliment a stranger
even if they look intimidating
release a song
even if nobody will listen
call your parents and tell them you love them
even if you don’t really feel like it
do the things that will make you feel like a person
not like a human
but like a person
a valued and valuable soul with a heart for a brain
