You and I
.:.
And the distance
between us
.:.
to hell and back
on a lonely road
less travelled
.:.
launched
into the storm
.:.
it's now
or never
return to me
once more

[Stephanie @SymphonyNotes]

Barrier broken
as words dropped
into the night's cold embrace

.:.

My thoughts no longer
in another place
while my head
rests against your chest

.:.

Divine bliss from parted
shadows and the touch
of a Fallen Angel's kiss

It is #SundayMorning once again so here's "Sunday Morning, Farringdon Road" by Cecil Osborne from 1929 which is in the collection @BrightonMuseums This was amongst Cecil's first submissions for exhibition &, by all accounts, he doubted his ability!! #CecilOsborne #ELG

Good morning @JohnTizard & thank you. Yet again #SaturdayMorning has arrived &, if I'm honest, I wasn't really ready for it: I still thought that it was Friday or maybe even Thursday! Here's one that I haven't shown for a while: this is "Felpham" by Walter Steggles from 1936 #ELG

Empty chairs,
empty tables
I saw him
Once
in a dream.

The scent of coffee
rises
as he takes my hand,
the sound of the waterfront
our symphony. https://t.co/y37s0GgSwr

Unwilling heartbeat

If I knew it was the last time I would talk to you,
I would have poured my feelings out
like the clouds spill out the rain.

@RDodsworth1 @lightlyliz Ah, excellent! @RDodsworth1 Here's "The Mill at Upminster" by Lilian Hawthorn (nee Leahy) from her post-war work. Her husband Elwin also painted & exhibited a piece with the same title in 1934 but, sadly, it is currently "unknown". #ELG

Take a break and nothing has changed. Nothing has changed except me. I no longer need online validation to feel worthy.

@rusdaboss @Spill_Words I don’t know who you are or why @ me. You sent me nothing. I will not be gaslighted again. I quit writing because I was bullied and told I was someone else’s account by a lying filth Troll Nara Hodge and her multiple accts when that could have been easily verified and was not.
