for my soulmate

A recently single, newly-graduated and unemployeed Coraline Novak must confront the present mess of her life by addressing the truths of her past - during the course of one evening at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting her father is hosting. 「 2nd Place Winner of the TMoL One-shot Contest / A re-draft 」

You only hinder yourself by concealing those feelings under a concrete mask. But remember, concrete cracks and I see your unmarred skin that's not tasted the flavour of living. You hide like a guilty thief. You steal away the experience so open your eyes, your mind, your heart to the landscape known as Emotion. *** (30/6/22) Maturity is when you look back at your creation with, not disgust, but pride. You marvel at your growth, rather than shame yourself for the lack of knowledge in the past. Amongst the embarrassment, commend your budding talent, and strive to make better for yourself. 2020 anthology. 2nd place in The Bridge Society Poetry Awards. Beautiful cover by @Lane2London.
