for a while, my writing about pain meant writing only about the emptiness & destruction of it: an outlet to give the unknowable a language. what’s coming up for me now is a desire to move into a space that captures a greater depth, not a terrible after, just a life that takes on different meaning.

not to be dramatic but hearing james stewart say ‘I’ll give you the moon Mary’ and donna reed saying ‘I’ll take it!’ temporarily cures me of any melancholy I have in that moment

not to be dramatic but getting these dungas on vinted for £15 (were about £70) originally from a small biz that has since closed down before I managed to get any— may be the biggest achievement of my year x

she’s just a girl … in yet another chequered shirt (avoiding her assignment) … asking herself if it’s okay to have yet another coffee in her christmas mug (sorry to my fave movie for butchering that quote)

last year, I wrote a poem about the complex feelings of leaving and returning home alone, of longing; alongside the safety I currently find in it, the reprieve from dating trauma, the learning to trust myself again. here’s a little bit from that:
