This is a masterpiece from the soul. The metaphors, the horror, the ache I felt in my gut while reading while realizing I too, revel in the bloody mess of someone else. Drowning in the missing and breathing in deeply while under their water, wanting to drown. Your words are beautiful and haunting, tucked together with lessons and gore. So much talent at every fold of the paper and spaces between the words. You are art, down to your bone marrow. 🩵🫂

Absolutely beautiful,

"I talk to you all the time but I can never speak to you again"

"I wait for the revelation, the relief"

The constant struggle of trying to accept what we cannot change, and may never know. Maybe just knowing that we've grown, could be enough; or at least we hope.
