And then they give you dirty looks for not understanding 🤷🏻‍♀️

When I cannot
talk to you
I talk to you
anyway

When I cannot
see you
I see you
everywhere

When I cannot
hear you

More of this, please. Now do Black Lives Matter!

History repeats.

The dark hours are for hunger,
for skin against skin,
for wandering hands,

Each calendar=12 high quality frameable 28cm square prints of my botanical photos:

are a constant
homing beacon
beaming across
the lights years
piercing my darkest
night

I would happily endure all the trauma I've been through for a thousand lifetimes more,
just to know It was always leading me to you.

I know I've asked this a few times recently but I've been very unwell for much of this year & am trying to get back on my feet again financially by teaching my workshops again alongside running my Etsy shop.
Please could you give my posts above/below about my workshop a RT if you have a moment?...🌿

I’ve been too unwell to work for most of this year due to a breakdown. If you enjoy my photos & have a spare second or two might you be able to RT my workshop in my previous post? It would help so much. Thankyou 🌿
