lately ive been dreaming of red of swimming in the dark and the roots of trees that snake around my ankles in the cold lately ive been dreaming of a shore of mangroves in the deep of night and the burning silence that fills the space fills my ears with water a peaceful demise below the surface.
ive been having a recurring dream of being pushed into a dark inky ocean, and trying to swim to safety towards an island of trees. but ultimately, drowning.
