To you, her eyes were blue. But her eyes were not blue, she was. To me, her eyes were two sapphire gemstones which spoke with animation and muse. They were an overly washed pair of denim jeans which shelved the wear and tear of her disposition, as a child would display a toy. They were Aegean reservoir, a watering hole for my mind. They were two 10-dimensional, yet amorphous, cerulean pearls which carried the trail of one million miles of stars. They were filled with a beautifully constructed rhapsodic orchestra. Their occasional rainfall led to the obsidian smudge underneath the left only. Regardless, they appeared articulate and abstract. They were an artificial siren call, arguing the idea that you were meeting your fate and it was beyond control. Allowing reflection upon your life to be made evident. They may have resembled the sky after a crippling oceanic storm. But her eyes were not blue.

Juliana! How have you been? What's new? Lately to be very honest, I've been blue and I don't know why. It could be a number of things. I'm generally happy, but I'm also generally unhappy if that makes sense. Anyway, I found out that I'm a synesthete! For you/those who don't know, I associate colors with sounds and see it in my mind (so technically, I have associative chromesthesia) which is super cool! Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful day!

Dear Caroline,
I apologize for the delay. The past week had me struggling to complete all tasks (and actually failing to complete a couple of them) and I’m so glad it’s the weekend now and I get to do things at a more leisurely pace.
I hope you’ve been feeling more happy than sad. Synesthesia sounds like a such interesting but also confusing thing to experience!
Have a great weekend and week, my friend!
Wherever there is music, she is too, / in the soft blue of the sky, in Grecian verses, / in the mirror of water that flows from the fountain, / in the marble of time, in a sharpened sword, / in the serenity of an open terrace / that looks upon the gardens and the sunsets. / And behind all the myths and masks: her soul, which is always alone.
Jorge Luis Borges, tr. by Paul Weinfield, from “Susana Bombard,”

I fell in love with the way she was so honestly broken; a mess of a girl with the face of a Michelangelo angel.
She was a picture colored without precision, scribbles of color outside the lines.
She was a white t-shirt covered in coffee stains. She was a napkin with a phone number drunkenly scribbled upon its face.
She smoked to die slowly and yet she looked at this ugly world with blue eyes of curiosity and passion. Holes in her old jeans and a collarbone that could cut glass.
She ripped her beating heart out of her chest and placed it in my trembling hands “hear, it’s yours” she said.
She was a dying planet the world knew nothing about. A galaxy inside her mind. Sun in her eyes and a heart bigger than the moon.
I think God made us out of the same star,
ripped our heart in two and gave us each half.
You don’t know what it’s like to live with a broken heart until you find its missing piece beating in someone else’s chest.
