her sweetest devotions

This is America God bless who? The ones whose screams will be silenced, as your firework parade pours out of the sky? Those whose freedoms are ripped from their hands before they can even ask? Whose freedom do we celebrate? Those who manipulate, and kill with their lies? Can you feel the greed that this land was built on? Freedoms are only guaranteed if you look like the men that started it. You look around and watch as families are torn apart, as people are killed, as lives are ruined. You watch until it’s you Then you beg to leave. Are we patriotic enough? Are we actually great yet? photos by @jayfaaaa model is @daylenhh writing by @sweetestdevotionss & @daylenhh

can’t you see me? piercing your gaze, tugging on your eyes? it must be easier to look away. you can’t hear me? banging the walls of your mind, my heart beating a bruise inside my chest? you must be relieved to feign deafness. don’t you feel it? my presence in the space you hold, pressing against your skin? it must be easy to ignore my touch. you couldn’t taste it? the yearn of something more when you took me in your mouth? i’m sure it tasted sweet. you can’t smell it? the bitter fumes of the smoke that trails after my steps? how i envy your lack of smell. kayla celeste 💌 directed, written & shot by me. graphic design: @noednahnope model: @medusainhiding
