Yesterday during our meeting
I was freeing my soul from the chains of the night
I was teaching its eyelashes
How to look at youLook at it, see it flowing between us
Would you call it a wave?
Would you call it a rose? Take it
Crumble it on your lips -

This does have a positive feel to it.
You never know, sometimes acknowledging someone who’s struggling could impact their day in a positive way.
One could only hope!-

I think that too often people know it’s a mask, but they want to believe it’s reality. Because having to see what makes them uncomfortable is more than they’re willing to take on. So we paste on the smile and say we’re fine, and they eagerly choose to believe it so they don’t have to acknowledge the truth. I love that the message in this is to see beyond the surface

Perfect ending. Say it again so I can hear how wrong the recount is. Very realistic and draws you into the moment.

I have so many thoughts on this one. I wish I didn’t feel this was our potential “future”…for however long it lasts. It gets uglier by the day. Not ready to give up yet though. Amazing writing! I was talking to Mary the other day and she said she just bought your latest book. 🙌
