The Corners Of The Sea


I once had a dream that I was swimming and looking for the corners of the sea.
Four corners of the sea.

It has stayed with me.
Right now I am looking at a suitcase in the corner of my living room.
It is full of photographs of me and my ex partner who died seven years after we broke up.
I was given the photographs recently from his belongings. I have not felt like unpacking the suitcase yet.
Too many feelings, too much unfinished business.
So it sits in a corner.....a sea of memories.
I guess that's why they call it emotional baggage.
