  1. I didn't write this to upset anybody. It should be known by now that in hurting others, we only hurt ourselves. Alas, the smoke in the mirror obscures the view, and distorts the shadows. Another scarlet blade sheathed, they say to just be yourself. Yet, they never walk their talk.

    BEFORE THE WAR

    The rich fragrance of Summer’s history rustles through yellowed pages descended from treetops gilded by Autumn's light between sunrise, and sunset.

    At night, mist ascends to paint those peaceful mornings which announce the Snow Queen's imminent...

  3. It was not an easy door to open.

    When she did, #boundless possibilities became, the threshold a #liminal space between #illusion and potential. Arctic desert morphed to #tundra upon new #sentiments that #burnt away the shackles.

    A pang of pain, an old #acquaintance, told her, it was not quite yet time to #celebrate.

  8. In the darkest night of my soul, a #hollow scream echoes into the night. Then, #otherworldly silence falls. I catch a #notion of a draft, then realise the giant pendant. It #swings soundless. As it changes direction, a #splash of #cerise illuminates the #celestial canvas.

  9. The day started golden before #gray clouds moved in. Wind lifted leaves and sand fine like #powder. #Entwined in a dance, they twirled through the streets and #garbled the view. When his arms slid around her, she felt a surge like #fireworks. It was those #stolen moments that maintained her #resilience.

  10. She heard the crows calling, causing #echoes between the buildings of her block. Autumn's #overture.

    While bachelors flocked, she observed a golden leaf #cling a little longer to the aspen, before it gently tumbled to the ground. One last dance in the #fresh air that promised a clear night sky with #scintillating stars.

  14. We #close the door to the #whirlwind of the world, to exchange views over tea and scones, grasping for this space that is ours, and ours alone. After the #sun sets, we look at a now #clear sky, #replete with #stars.

  15. #Morose, I #grimace at the day without a #word. Everything in life is #ephemeral, albeit I don't feel it. I open my #heart, anyway, allow the #sunlight to slowly melt away the pain. Maybe tomorrow I'll see the #fruit of my efforts and wake up to a #eucalyptus fresh morning.

    I say #goodbye to the #sinister energies I experience and pull back into my snail shell. The #abalone walls shimmer like a #kaleidoscope. I allow myself to breathe #softly. Here, my #beleaguered soul can unfold and remember its #mighty light. Reality shifts.

  20. Earth stopped its spin.
    Seeking balance in a #jungle of madness, I don't function. Not a #doll, I am the #infinite, #intrinsic me, whatever that might be. #Thunderclap announces lightning. I'll shine, to see
    me.

  21. #Livid words like rocks, a #snake's hiss when they pass. The #gate, leading out of this memory, closes behind me with a '#BONK'. Deep breaths work a #charm. I start from #scratch, and this is me, my here, my now.

  22. Only a metre of ribbon, and I am back in golden days, inspecting snap peas with a tendency to attract Opiliones while crows hobnob in a cool breeze.

    A golden ray falls over my shoulder while I wrap my present.

  27. #Haunting memories tuck like #chains.
    A #cliff. I'm ready to take the leap of faith. But then again, I choke.

    The #earth spins.
    I need to #confine myself to the present.
    A deep breath, then I jump.

    See how my wings spread.

    Inspiration was the day on which I have taken this footage. - Many moons ago with the camera of my (at that time not so) old mobile phone.

  34. Once I stood strong.
    Then the earth shattered.
    Now, the slightest #ripple makes me #tumble.
    I don't want to feel weak, and here's the #crux,
    as in it I find my strength.
    I focus on a #sumptuous day in May,
    when sunlight is caught in a #spiderweb.

  35. When #rosehips turn red, I retreat to my #nest, lock the door. Hold on to the #key, don't throw it away. I enter my archives and come out #lopsided. What's to be kept, back on the shelves, things to let go of onto the #pyre.

  36. A #gilded afternoon landscape. Beneath a tree, I stretch in its shade like a #kitten. The #ringing laughter of a child cuts through the choir of a #zillion birds.

    Time to #burn the old bridges and choose life.

  37. Sitting over yellowed pictures on a #balmy eve in early Summer. Music dating back over a quarter #century accompanies a #sensuous journey while #tranquil twilight #stretch-es into night.
