Maybe I knew you in another life…
Like how the snake knew Lilith’s curves…
Or how Collier knew Lilith.

Finding Your Light: Embracing Imperfection
When you stop trying to please others and cease striving for perfection, your light returns. We often believe that women become unhappy because they are not pretty enough, not perfect enough, or not hardworking enough. But what truly exhausts women isn't these things. It’s trying too hard in life.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Wow, I how this poem is so short but answered the mystery of the past.
"Knew" carries so much weight here, particularly in the old Biblical sense, which ties so nicely into Adam and Eve etc. Subtly done👏
Fabulously-written Em! I've missed you on here my friend!
Perhaps. But alas, only in my dreams.
Lovely, lovely, Em <3
Such a gorgeous, sensual piece!
Gorgeous lilting verse that beautifully follows the coils and curves of the painting.
This reminded me of the red string theory but this one is across different lifetimes. Loved your poem!
I love this. Short but memorable. I just looked mesmerized by your cover photo and thought 'wow, there must have been one helluva party in 1889!' ⚡💙⚡
