I'm afraid that I've followed the arc of the narrative rather than the prompts, so this is late and disordered! #vss365 #shed i do love you i don’t feel it right now, but nonetheless i do love you wish the hurt was as easy to shed as this dress

We bleed onto pages if to say, here's courage here's a time of wanting existential end, yet continuing instead here's a time of afterwards when the panic has faded away here's a time of growing through breathing and daily laughter here's a time I survived so you can try too #poetry
