Without a Care of Who is Who

orpheus_of_hades

The safety shore of our souls 
is buried underneath the snow 
A chilling winter that consumes us 
Hiding the truthful view of the desire to belong. 
A glimpse. The anchor. Tides. 
Those tides that hug our bodies without a care of who is who 
The boat that takes us to our final travel 
with scrawny figure rowing down the river

    Orpheus, this brought me into that space where you feel cut off…like what you’re reaching for is there, but you can’t quite get to it. That sense of distance and longing feels real here. Strong write. Welcome to MPS, too! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

          Damn this is tough but spooky, why?

          • orpheus_of_hades

            I'm not sure myself where this image came from. It just sort of consumed me for a minute and I had to express that on paper
