Opium- Eater

A weekend stuck inside because of a so called "hurricane" made photo taking minimal. Luckily the sun shone through the blanketed sky for a few minutes allowing me to take these photos quickly of my outfit last Friday. This series reminds me of a quote I recently took note of in my sketchbook from fellow blogger The Stranger.

"And tonight I should like to bury myself in a graveyard because I know that no amount of restraint will keep me away from you. I cannot speak to you lest I accidentally mutter these morbid, putrid words and admit that your absence only lasted for a hundred and eighty hours and I found myself missing you." 


Her use of such darkly con-notated  words like morbid and putrid result in making her romantically inclined statement all the more powerful. In recent months my boyfriend and I have spent much less time together due to busy schedules, work, and school. So for the 75% of the week I spend by myself I often want to tell him how much he is missed without coming off as clingy, despite that we've been together for over a year. The Stranger manages to find an ephemeral balance to the heartache and overwhelming love and self hatred one has in times apart from their loved one. I highly recommend for you all to check out her blog to read more of her wonderful musings and obsess over her fashion sense.
