because she’s ethereal,
absolutely endearing,
but she carries a painful memory inside her,
and in her own words…
“turning the faucet on an open wound
and it was just like that,
a back-against-the-wall kind of feeling,
no time for goodbyes,
feelings of estrangement buried deep in lies,
for a moment we crave peace,
and then forget that trauma fuels our delusion,
our delusion fuels our pain,
our pain fuels our heartbreak,
and i was almost buried with the body that brought me into this world.”
