- Description
- The image displays an open, handwritten notebook with two pages visible against a black background. The left page, titled "ESSAYS" at the top, contains a section labeled "GRIEF on a scale of 1-10" followed by lines discussing themes of loss and brokenness in a personal, reflective manner. The handwriting is in black ink and appears casual and spontaneous. The right page is titled "CATS and DOGS" with sections labeled "TRUE LOVE" and "ASSHOLES." Beneath "TRUE LOVE," there are names listed, followed by a phrase about deep, unconditional love. In the section labeled "ASSHOLES," a single name is mentioned. The right page has a visibly jagged edge, suggesting it may have been torn.

ESSAYS. GRIEF on a scale of 1-10.
Death of loved ones. Death of illusions.
MY heart is not broken. My heart will not be broken. A heart is broken when it loses its function to feel. When it beats just to make more money, got more power.
CATS and DOGS
TRUE LOVE
Charlie + Alice
Sunny Betty + Andi The triplets: P. Nut, Flame & Sparky.
Emmett O'Malley. Ben Deep, deep unconditional love. Utter grief upon their loss.
