Fall asleep with Henrik

Close Your Eyes, Press Play, Trust Me

Hi, Sleepy.

Tonight we start in “the benigning” with my Swedish-English tongue and the fear of not having enough words, and somehow end up in a forest with an axe, my dad, and the old intrusive thought that maybe I’m secretly a monster. On the way there we invent a terrible podcast called “Grunts from the Gym,” complain about heavy breathing strangers, and sneak into a Pilates class… standing in the back, trying to love myself although I'm bad at it.


We talk about doing things you’re bad at, about going to classes just to be close to your teenager, about watching your parents’ world shrink and being terrified that your own might do the same. And then, at the very end, it’s just you and me awake while everyone else is off building strange dream-treehouses with their ex-bosses. A tiny, secret room in the middle of the night where you’re allowed to be human and still drift off to sleep.


Sleep Tight!
