#31 – Dazed.

Dazed

I put one foot in front of the other

Like a soldier

Subconsciously marching.

I feel the wind in my face,

The breeze through my hair –

My peripheral it is obstructing.

My lips are left ajar,

Pupils pulsing with the beat of my heart –

Lub-dub. Lub-dub. Lub-dub.

And as I ponder the dichotomies

Of love and life –

I am left aimlessly wondering.

With love, Emily.

#30 – Breathless.

Breathless

My heart skipped all it’s beats

And sank right to my feet –

And in that moment,

I had to remind myself to breathe.

With love, Emily.

#27 – Summer Breeze.

Hayden and I met for the first time last December after connecting on Instagram.

We had an incredibly pleasant day exploring Kirribilli and Lavender Bay – apart from some dodgy Caesar salad I consumed for lunch. It was also my first time visiting Wendy Whiteley’s Secret Garden, and I was immediately mesmerised by its beauty to say the least. We spent a long while wandering through the garden – ascending staircase after staircase; discovering old furniture and machinery; stumbling across gorgeous flora that I couldn’t help but hold in my hand. Thank you Wendy, for sculpting such a magical place – so magical it would only be right to say it came from a fairytale. Such a gem tucked away in a quiet corner of Sydney, and you should read more about Wendy and her wonderful fruit of labour right here – a magical and eye-opening day indeed.

Hayden has also released his debut single ‘Lovers in the Moonlight’, which you can listen to on Spotify or download from iTunes! (Why not listen to the track while finishing this post?) Heh.

The following images are some film photographs I took from our little adventure – hope you like them!
