Sija Rose Instagram – The tulips are too red in the first place, they hurt me . Even through the gift paper I could hear them breathe . Lightly, through their white swaddlings, like an awful baby. Their redness talks to my wound, it corresponds. They are subtle : they seem to float, though they weigh me down, Upsetting me with their sudden tongues and their color, A dozen red lead sinkers round my neck. ~ #tulips #sylviaplath . *picture inspiration @fabrice.le.coq #watercolor #watercolorflowers #watercolourpainting #flowers #nature #greengrass #redflowers
