#perthemo

I know it’s long overdue because I left like 2 weeks ago or some amount of time that isn’t actually that long but now feels like an eternity. Everyone that I had the privilege of associating with in Perth, I need you all to know how much you all mean to me and how much I truly love each of you. You made me feel accepted and beautiful. You helped me find a home where I felt safe and loved for exactly who I was. I have never found a home within people before and you offered me that sanctuary I craved. I don’t think I could ever repay or thank you enough for what you provided me when I think I most needed it. I miss all of you so much and it’s an emptiness I haven’t ever felt before but I still have all the beautiful memories that I got to share with you all. I’m so thankful you all exist. You helped me find the person I really wanted to be within the shell I was living in. I never hugged you all enough or told you how much I valued you while I was there. But I hope this provides some sense of the importance you all hold in my heart. The memories of your voices made fade a bit but the images of your smiles and the memories will remain forever imprinted in my mind. One day I will find my way back to you all in Perth and I hope I’ll be accepted back again even if for a short time. Thank you for everything my friends. You’re all so beautiful. I hope you all find such happiness in the world. As Sas reminded me when I left, I may be gone from Perth but it is not goodbye. I promise.
