SUMMERSOUND
"On the windows/ our heat turns/ into droplets of water// and I know some things/ we will never get back."
— "Ripening," Simon Shieh

summerheat in everyone's insides.
city sweat can take you back to childhood countryside. your young lover can get too old, & yet not old enough. you can love the woman who made a girl of you. you can want to love the woman who made a girl of you. it is hard to write & carry silence. & you know, you do, that on the seabed there are many mad with waiting.
for the impenetrable girls. cw for implications of grooming & abuse

Extremely poignant. Loved the photography.
thank you so much!! i had to repurpose some shots etc due to time constraints so i'm glad :)
There was this moment during the novel where they both sit in the car for hours saying nothing to each other. That moment hooked me.
I feel like I know nothing and everything about these two.
Thank you for the beautiful read!
thank you so much for reading <3
oh dear i'll have to read so much more of your work
thank you
thank You so much for reading !! ♥️♥️
this is genuinely haunting
the setting hits really close to home as well. in a time where everything is trying to burn you alive and consume you, the worst thing is having the comforting warmth of someone you trust end up becoming worse than the blazing sun
or colder than the darkest winters. it's terrible
thank you for this !
it is terrible...! it's winter in australia & i'm heaterless & shivering so it was an interesting experience writing this. thank you so so much for reading !! <3
i hope you may be greeted by warm drinks and comfy blankets soon...
