behind the attic wall

“The heart of man is very much the sea, it has its storms, it has its tides and in its depths it has its pearls too” —Vincent Van Gogh, 1853-1890




she lived behind the attic wall,
where shadows fall collecting
bright bits of dust.
a quiet space:
thoughts rest here,
memories are sealed,
and a secret is forgiven:
she learnt to let go &
let love in.
