I can't wait for something that doesn't exist. A temporary mirage without reflection The question is: Can I destroy the illusion build something new with the pieces something real but very different? Or has the mirage put a stamp on my heart Too much ink to wipe away. #poetry

Writing letters I'll never send Cause no words will change How things are The only Reasonable Action: Doing nothing Standing still Waiting For something Without a name Im so very bad at Doing nothing Against my nature Maybe My nature Is against What I Long for #poetry

A friend asked me a question today that was a bit of an eye opener; If people get scared away when you show them who u really are do u really want those people in your life? I've been a rebel my whole life, but I've also been tremendously scared of rejection, trying soo hard to be liked.

Sometimes when I try to listen For my inner voice Its just Quiet Not still Not tranquil Just empty A halt in the air Before you Fall down The ravine Maybe it's cause Im not still often enough I've forgotten To search for myself before I ask others to find me #poetry #shadowwork

Had a great time yesterday! It was so much fun going out with somebody who likes to dance and who dont give a fck how they look while doing it. Felt like 20 something again. 🤘 Looking forward to more concerts and clubbing @rikardfvs.bsky.social 💋

What I create: I make physical and digital collages. Both abstract and figurative. I love working with old archive material, a very niche theme or to do illustrations for articles or book covers.

My tangled innards A ravel of thoughts A rumble not humble Of memorys caught My tangled innards A mess of one kind A heart's just a muscle infecting the mind My tangled innards A strange path of hope There's things to discover In a hearts messy loop #witchsky #poetry #folkpoetry

I try to tell myself that I don't really long for romance. That Im ok with friendship, laughter, great sex. But I can't help it. I really long to be swept away. To feel that and know that the other person feels the same.

Some pictures from my late night walk. Can you see the scary pareidolia in one of them? 😁🖤💜🖤
Shadow of bushes, lit up fasades . A streetlightFallen leafs on the ground. Trees partly lit up by streetlight.  A path with trees on each side seen in the background.  Trees, an apartment building and a small street.  Shadows and streetlights

Made a mini poetry-zine of my lastest stream of consciousness poetry. One original (cut out pieces and glue) and a few copies on regular and mint green paper. Feels good but a bit nervous. But feels great to just do something and not overthink it. #poetry #witchsky #shadowwork
Handwritten front page of zine. Inside of poetry zine. Cut out printed poems with small pictures by each.

Just a librarian sending texts to their lover when the library is closed. 😉 2 h left of work. 2 book trolleys with books to reshelf. Mails to answer. Plans to plan. Then, hopefully I can get home and call him. Got some alone time at home, 2 h this afternoon. 2+2+2 💋☺️

Spent some time rearranging and replanting a few of my potplants today. Put away the mini- greenhouse and got lots of new space on the windowsill. Taking care of my plants always clears my head. And its a way for me to acknowledge the changing of seasons. #plantsky #witchsky #planttherapy

To think about How you should Stop Thinking About the things You dont want to Think of Body and mind aching of abstinence Missing what was only A shimmering Delusion To know part of it can be Retrieved Rebuilt But the picture Painted Was Never Really there. #poetry

Its almost 7 years since I met my close friend Per for the last time. I obviously didn't knew that then. A few months later, spring 2020, he passed away from hearfailure, 37 yrs old. I still think of him all the time. Today when listening to a new album, I though, Per would love this. 💜💜💜

I love reading @theswampwytch.bsky.social posts about the wild nature around her home. There's so many amazing birds, mushrooms and plants that I've never known of, if it wasn't for these posts.

I enjoy going to pubs alone, studying people. Sometimes I don't feel like socialising in person, but I like to be in a crowded room, with no social obligations.

Looks tierd, but at least I feel rather stylish. Prideparty in my hometown tonight, but haven't decided if Im gonna go. Don't know if I've got energy enough to be in a big crowd of people. Might stay home, finishing my collage and watch a good queer classic movie instead.

Having honest and respectful conversations are a fckn beautiful thing. I want to send out a huge thanx to friends here and irl for talking with me when my brain and heart creates a mess. And for all the support in general. You know who you are. ❤️

In a way almost everyone has a connection to the magic of nursery rhymes. I remember when my father used to sing the Swedish folk song "vyssan lull" for me. I then sang it for my son. I still get calm today when I sing it. For me, music and singing has a special kind of magic in its own right.

After an emotionally challenging week your allowed to eat a cheese platter for dinner. That damn hope has started to spiralling again though, and even if it softens the worst anxiety, its not worth to let it grow. Is there a word for hope that's less dreamy and more logical and realistic?

Poetry allows you to stare in to yourself and get something back Sometimes a loud scream But sometimes A tap on the shoulder A reminder that People Have been trough The same Things As you Stay. #poetry #brokenheart #mentalhealth

Hope is not a promise But if somebody lights a match in an abyss You will reach for it If you wait long enough will the flame fade or will dawn replace the fire #poetry #witchsky #brokenheart

I got trough today. Thats enough. Friends tell me that its good that I have emotions, that I can cry. Maybe that's true, but sometimes I really wish that I could just be somebody else. Don't know who though.

I need to keep myself busy. Do things instead of thinking. Would you like to have a poster of one of my artworks? I print them on good paper and send them carefully wrapped. Name a price that works for you and I'll try to work out the cheapest postage price. A3 or A4 or postcard size.

Yarrow leafes to heal the hurt. Rosehip to see that what withered may grow again. Honey as a reminder that there's sweetness left. Sage to se beyond the smoke Basil 💚 For me to read my heart and see what's right and not make hastily decisions. To be patient and listen. To rest. #witchsky

"She once had a name" Digital collage of old portrait photograph from early 1900's, forgotten in a book at the local library. September 2026. #photography #artsky
Digital Collage made of several copies of the same photograph, placed above eachother with different transparency and directions. Original photography from the early 1900s. A young woman in white high collar dress, leaning her hand at her chin, smiling. Hair put up.

Im sorry for venting so much here. You dont have to read if these kind of posts trigger more sadness in you. 💜 I survived the RPG- course for librarians during the morning. It was actually a lot fun and great to focus on something else. Im still shaky though. Like im having an anxiety hangover.

Idgie Heather @idgieheather.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Im so tierd of sadness and anxiety. I try really hard to focus on the good things I have in my life, but sometimes it feels like Im just not meant to be happy. Tomorrow might be slightly better. Just need to get trough today.

Dear #witchsky and other close bluesky friends. Need some advice on how to acknowledge sorrow without having a meltdown. If you to are a person with a lot of strong feelings, how do you handle those without falling apart?

Idgie Heather @idgieheather.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
My life will not fall to pieces. I can handle this. Im still here. He, and the rest of my friends are still here. Im not alone. Im not abandoned. Im just a silly, foolish, romantic old queer who's dreams are to big.
