Is There Fairytale?

Where I'm at, is no (wo)man's land. Growing up, I have all these wonderful notions of finding true love and being with that person for the rest of my life. In love, growing old together, the fairytale ending. Lately, I have butterflies in my stomach and I think it has something to do with you. Yet in the "fleeting shadows" of our times, I hate the thought that one day I wake up, you forget me and the moment has slipped by. Like a dream. Left with just the memory of a face, a conversation, a beautiful walk and a kind smile.

And all I'm left with is a hauntingly beautiful memory of you. Just like these dreams by Tim Walker,I don't want to wake up just yet.

I love him because he captures the very essence of who I am, which translates into my style and aesthetic. The romance, the dream, the hope, the love, the vulnerability, the fragility.  Those very elements that I try so hard to conceal, they are all here for the world to see. This is me. Inside.
