Golden hour glow and favorite vintage tees – doesn’t get much better than this! Spent the day wandering through the city, capturing little moments like these and feeling completely ourselves. Simple j...
The woollen scarf feels scratchy tonight, doesn’t it? Like memory itself - familiar, but not always comfortable. It’s been years since we heard from him, hasn’t it? Just the quiet rustle when he wasn’t here, the echo of his laugh caught in the dust motes dancing in the afternoon light. And us…always a little too close to each other then, weren’t there? No need for much noise, really, just the way the coffee cups sat perfectly aligned on the table, the scent of rain against the windowpane.
And those boots...these worn leather boots. Comfortable, certainly. Too comfortable perhaps, after all these nights spent turning them over in our minds. They haven't seen much action lately, compared to the ones with which we used to chase shadows, didn’t they? The shadow of doubt mostly. Did we blame ourselves enough? He thought so, though. Remembered that once, when he brought us lilac, even if it was a bit past its prime.
You're staring, aren't you? A slight furrowing of the brow, a subtle shift of weight - nothing overt. Not unlike him, maybe. That hesitant gaze, ever sure to find where it wanted, yet never quite certain why. We were good, weren't we? Mostly.
Now look at us, sitting here in the twilight of remembrance. Perhaps a touch of melancholy in your eyes—or perhaps not. More likely, you’re simply wondering what caused us to drift apart, into the comforting silences of home. After all, hadn’t we found something beautiful here, even if it did end a little quietly?
Don’t be afraid to admit it, you know. Don’t be afraid to see yourself reflected back in this face – a hint of hope nestled beneath the traces of resignation. Go ahead, take a chance. Let go of the reserve. Tonight, everything hangs in the balance, doesn't it?"

To help us out, here’s a quick note about the image (which you might have already considered!). This particular version shows the woman wearing a warm grey knitted dress, a chunky brown cable knit cardigan, black tights and well-worn brown leather ankle boots. Her hair is loose and flowing, her expression thoughtful rather than overtly pensive - she looks like she’s both open and guarded.
Let the feeling wash over you! Now, off you go! 😊
