with more air than words

i am headed up north where the sky is silver and the air is crisp. i need an escape where i can take a few deep breathes and feel them in my chest.
i need a day of solitude and stillness where i can actually feel the passing of time come over me, as if a large wool blanket is being spread across my body.
i keep having these dreams of walking in the snow, with no one around, just me and my thoughts, deserted in a lonely forest. i pray for moments like that and now it's quite possible i will find mine.

i am really struggling to get some film for this trip. i haven't had money to buy any in months. hence why i haven't posted in a while, but i'm sure i will scrounge something up for the occasion. it's really important to me, to get some great photos while i'm out there, but mostly i can't wait to see my family and to feel that unrelenting love that i've been missing so badly.

1 1/2 days till colorado.

Polaroid Sx70. Time Zero.
