I have survived physical and emotional abuse in an intimate relationship. This person, my abuser, he gaslights this truth and calls his abuse as empathy for me. I understand this is the reality for most of such situations.
I’m not sure where healing starts and ends when truth itself can feel like grabbing at sand and watching it escape from between your fingers.
It dosen’t take long for things to get out of hand
But when it does, I can only hope,
I can only try,
Since later, time will flow both ways
(For all time.
No matter how much I wish it didn’t.)
Wrapping up the Periplus workshops in Alikianos, Crete.
Thank you to @periplusworkshops for curating and facilitating this wonderful experience. And thank you to @mielmarnie for collaborating with me and forging new friendship in this beautiful place. This book was entirely made using biomaterials, from paint to paper to brushes to linoleum.
