Meet our #CreativeMind of the week, Emily
Spotlight on: Emily
I just want to see towels
As I sit in the bathroom
Opposite the door
I see towels hanging there
Some have fallen to the floor
As I look, I see them
But there’s also something else
There’s white dots and floaters
It makes me not feel like myself
It’s called visual snow
And it’s constantly all around
It’s in places of light, and dark
And in my ears there’s a ringing sound
I wish it would go away
And leave me alone, in peace
But it’s here, part of me and my vision
And it’s never going to cease
I’ll try and come to terms with it
And treat it like my own little world of glitter
But it’s hard, sometimes impossible
And makes my life just that bit shitter
So, as I sit here in the bathroom
Opposite the door
I’ll look at these towels
And pretend that I’m a lucky one, to be able to also see so much more
