Mesophase

‘A state of matter intermediate between liquid and solid ‘

Intense pressure.

A period of reorganising and re-evaluating  (or 'hiding' depending on your point of view ;-)

A new journal of sorts... 

 

'Molten'

Molten. Volatile. Elusive. Whimsical

Aware that something has to give. Recognising that something is me. Accepting yet resisting. Realising the fortress I have built is too solid. But I’m not ready to give it up. It has kept me safe. It keeps others out. Though it also leaves me trapped. I have imprisoned myself. I have become them. I am strong. Yet like steel, if I remain frozen for too long, I know I will eventually become brittle and break. I need to thaw. Become more malleable. The pressure I feel is intense. I don’t know if I can endure anymore. I am now fighting myself.

'Fluidus'

Fluid. Changing. Shifting. Not fixed.
