if you ever think you feel no love, remember that there is no rest without love. a love of the night, a love of the warmth of sleep. a love of the day that follows – yes, there really is a love there. there must be something about tomorrow that you love, for you fall asleep today. you love yourself enough to rest when you need rest. you love her enough to rest when you need to: for her sake. or there’s a love for your dreams, for the fullness you feel only when you’re not awake. there is no rest without love – no matter how empty or dark you think you are, you can still love. there’s always room for love.
