Love it! I have cried all month since I started writing and sharing my stories and yet I truly feel as though I am starting to heal. Maybe it’s that enough time has past but your line about breaking before healing resonates with me as well.

This is a fantastic use of colour to hold the entire piece together, it flowed to me like a red velvet scarf slowly slipping and dropping to the floor. Thank you for sharing this piece.

u have a remarkable gift for articulating the heavy, complex nuances of sorrow. it takes a lot of vulnerability and skill to write something that feels this raw yet remains so exquisitely crafted💗🩷

Thanks for sharing.

I picture a bath. I see the sadness in their eyes. And the red mingling with the paling of skin.

woah sam. i never have words for ur poetry. it’s so well written. thank you really for sharing this with us. 🫶

i love the fact here that when we’re sad, we’re usually painted blue. here, not. it’s red. the color of anger, blood, but also of passion — such a contradictory color that seems to burn from the inside.

also. “it flowed down her wrists”. ow. my heart.

Sam's monologues's avatar

I'm truly glad that u could picture it in that way, blue has been my forever favourite shade but red just evokes a different feeling. Thank you so muchhh for reading,it means a lottt<3
