Albania 2023

You need to go away fall apart to come back

dreams coming to collect

you are not in my dreams anymore

what do i need when i have all that i want

i don't lie in bed lonely anymore

i may be alone at night but i have you by my side

love is a moment, a tiny seed

it can be nothing and everything

all i wanted was that night

just a night of talking

and...

the most thoughful gift

i was not expecting it

dont read too much

but a moment a seed

it is a slow dance

a caress

a push pull

never a rejection

but and dance of emotions

good and bad

i am ready to cut you off at a moment

then i realise

it is a tickle

i am trying not to like you

you asked me not to

i want to be in your arms

to collapse

footnote: these four walls or behind closed doors - about the project which is work in progress

About these four walls, is an attempt to photograph myself inside the places I inhabit.

This is an extension of my travels around the world.

I have decided no matter simple, silly or contrived the images, to photograph myself inside the space. I hate being photographed so my challenge to myself is to discover myself in front of the camera.
