Francesca L Rolle @francesca-laura.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Her light illuminated me. But once seen in the bright light of her truth I couldn't unsee all the flaws. Every scar, stretchmark, and wrinkle telling a different story of pain, failure, and a life poorly lived. So I crawled back into the lonely dark where it was safe. #WeirdMicro 080

"It’s getting #stormy outside", she'd say with the "a" where the "o" ought to be. She’d catch herself, feel that old flicker of embarrassment, and then miss her. #vss365 1164
Francesca L Rolle @francesca-laura.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Something I just found in my notes... Unfurling, hastened, By thick eyes, Scratching beneath the surface, Of skin slick with salt, Sweat and tears mingling, To form a crust, That cracks at the slightest touch, Revealing raw, red emotion, A warning flag, A sentinel of fear #Poetry #WIP 091
