"Something shifted." WELL YESS! Everyone who is reading this and their heartbeat is shifting. UFFF...Safa.... rereading it is even better than reading it, because things just grow so much more beautiful in the time we leave them to breathe. Thank you for this soft kissie piece.
This is sheer brilliance Safa. I think of platonic intimacy and deep physical affection a lot. This gave me pause. Keep burning bright with your words💙
Me too! I have always thought of platonic intimacy as something I cherish, and that I dislike the way we are taught to prioritize romantic intimacy above all else. I'm glad you loved this <3
It doesn't. Intimacy can be expressed in different ways and have different connotations. As a society, we've conditioned ourselves to believing in, or rather legitimising, only one kind of intimacy…and that's rather narrow-minded…
Such a beautiful tender piece. Can be a screenplay. And you had me when I saw the word 'respect' between kisses. A lot of love and kisses be yours if you want it. 🌷🪻
'Some things are perfect just as, you know. They don't belong on the gilded escalator of life.' - I've done this too! Kept the magical things safe from life so that they stay magical, and they stay private.

Now your comment makes me pause! "Platonic Intimacy" has oxymoronic vibes but perhaps not.
It doesn't. Intimacy can be expressed in different ways and have different connotations. As a society, we've conditioned ourselves to believing in, or rather legitimising, only one kind of intimacy…and that's rather narrow-minded…
Beaaauuuuttttiiiifffuuuullll. Can it be much, much longer? Please?
Ahahah thank you! I wish it were longer too. Maybe it can be a series of friends kissing each other, let me think.

I do I do! Thank you Charulatha. Wow, I hadn't thought of this as a screenplay, but I see it now.
You are a rockstar, Safa and we are so lucky to have met you! You make Ochre Sky the community it is.
CRYING thank you Natasha, and I'm sending SO much love for you <3
So intimate, so delicate, so lovely..
So beautiful! This essay is speaking to everyone who has known this kind of a bond
Thank you so much Mukta, I'm so glad this spoke to you.

Absolutely, it makes so much sense. I'm glad it resonated with you, Karthik :)
