I wrap my arms around myself,
take a deep breath
and reassure myself that
everything will be okay,
That every situation
however discomforting
or saddening
will eventually pass.

-

The memory of the moment
is stuck in my head
like this photograph is
stuck to the cellophane of the album
A relic of halcyon days
Where we are grinning from ear to ear
Your hands entwined in mine
Promising forever
Our world bathed in sunlight
Not once doubting it would stay like this always
Until a raging storm hit
and flung us apart

-

To savour its sweetness you have to go through the thorns.

-

like soft music
heals the soul

-

RED

because it’s the colour of love and life.

-

that which represents the intensity of emotions

-

happiness. It’s the hue of sunshine casting away the shadows and ushering in brightness.

-

Handful of pretty words that fall from your mouth when least expected
Warm gestures that make my heart flutter and my cheeks turn red

-

one where nothing needs to be said but is utterly felt.

-

grows and overflows each day.
