Hey there Mari.

I know you’re reading these slow.

Savoring?

Pausing?

Maybe even re-reading?

I get it.

For whatever reason,
    you’re taking your time.

Dragging your feet at the “Next” button.

That’s fine.

Just do me a favor?

Leave this tab open.

Let it sit there,
    humming in the background,
    holding your place—
    a soft little heartbeat
    in your browser history.

Unread, for now.

But waiting.

Just like me.
