i am back in familiarity, see pic. 1, and i need to go and breathe again. i get melodramatic otherwise, see pic. 2.
once on a family outing when my brother and i were both very young, we drove past this stretch of silver sand and turquoise ocean called 'fairhaven beach', i said to my parents, we have to come back here! we all agreed at the time but never did. the very beginning of last year, or even the end of the year before, i was driving to lorne and drove past the beach again, i saw the same coloured sand and sea, it hadn't changed from my memory, and as much as i wanted to stop there at the time, i didn't, thinking, i will come back and be by your side another day. i never did.
for this summer, i hope the sea will be welcoming once more, because i would like to promise to all the mermaids in the ocean, that i will finally make this overdue visit. much love, aimée.
