this is “untitled (adaora/adornment)”
by: @anusahar
her people shower her in jewelry so she will only ever know the weight of gold, diamonds, and ruby.
the Sun meets her adornments in each movement made. it doesn’t know whether to kiss the gold or her skin first.
it is her adornments that Adaora does adore. and through them, she adores herself.

To Angie — girl I don’t wanna let go of you. I understood exactly why the world brought you to the point that we met you at. How does one say goodbye to what they love most knowing it is also what slowly kills them? I SEE YOU ANGIE! I defended you with every bit of me, no matter how ridiculous you may have seemed to others. You are hot and full of a different fire from the rest. I looked forward to each day I could dig a bit more into what makes you you. What a blessing to be a vessel for your truth — one shared by countless woman who “just want to get away.” You chose you till the very end. What a privilege it was to embody a woman who chooses to see what her wings can do — possibly for the first time ever. My God, thank you! There is so much of you that I am keeping for myself and so I thank you for this offering. Thank you. This is what I have to say for now. Thank you. 🪽
