In an enveloping space that embraces and gives refuge, where two kindred spirits dwell, reality does not appear in the conventional manner: dreams that suggest an escape, caresses that provide solace.

This ‘outside’ does not disturb, does not destroy the couple’s warmth and tenderness, but it is just.. there. And this ‘outside’ suggests, ever so precariously, the couple’s barely perceptible boundaries.
