Hello Hive naija, been a while you saw me on this streets. Life happened and I got crazy busy. But today I'll be sharing something I wrote that was inspired by the image below.
Hope it speaks to you.
My shadow crawling back into existence, asking questions my head can't process.
Drops it heavy, feels like a million tonnes are taking turns dropping points this mind can't process.
My shadow, the unfinished ideas of yesterday now a blur. Twice as difficult to process.
This shadow follows me around like a stubborn fly. Like a legion marching behind the flag. Like vultures following the trail of the carcass.
if I'm unable to untangle this, will end up with a snapped neck. A broken dream.
