Perched at ocean’s edge
they wait
weathering many a violent storm together
this faded red door
coloured hues of a heart left waiting
feet planted in the sand
awaiting homecoming
of love long lost at sea

So lonely a wait that sounds like sis! Wonderfully done for that pic.. you always see beyond the picture and paint us amazing stories!

I do find myself at a loss for words when I read yours... either that or I am repeating myself in say "wow" and "awesome" but you are. and this is. Your words touch my heart.

Oh this has such a sad quality about it. Your words match the loneliness of that red door, jst standing there alone.
All the best with this
