love, a powerful word, and an even more powerful feeling.
Love is an all-encompassing feeling, with a partner you love, you live, you grow, you experience life in a different way. Your partner, if right, can feel like an extension of your body, so when you are apart, in this case for a long distance relationship, you can feel like a part of you is missing.
This is a self-authored and illustrated poem by me, using my own situation to talk about the depression of a long distance relationship, yet how you need to look after yourself in the end as you’re your partners other half too and you need each other.
Portrayed is a digital piece, which could be a digital zine, it was intended for print but due to the COVID-19 virus, that isn’t possible right now.
