Loneliness solidified
Forever alone. No matter what happens from now on, that is what I will be. I’m surrounded by friends and family, cradled with attention and care; drowning in gazes of
It’s been a tough year
It’s been a tough year. A really tough year. It feels as if they are getting tougher as the time goes by. I wonder if that’s true. Years are passing
On my knees…
I may be on my knees, but I’m far from defeated. I may appear beaten and broken, but I’m only saving my strength and as always, looks are deceiving. I
Mind collapsed…
For the longest time all I heard were voices. I barely spoke english, but I understood hate and I did not need a translator to feel how much of it
Everything backwards…
For a happy person, I can be pretty sad sometimes. For someone who constantly cheers people up, I can fall in a very deep abyss of sorrow. For a person
The sea of silence
For decades now I’m a caring, soft-spoken person; always thinking about others and their feeling, always weighing my words and actions not to hurt anyone. Thousands of words that maybe
My own reality….
You once asked me if I still remember her. I said I don’t, and I noticed you were happy about it, happy that I moved on with my life. Well,
Life at 3am
The Moon was high above my head, full and as bright as it can be. I was standing in the middle of the meadow, grass reaching all the way up
Pieces missing…
There is no point in lying or pretending; no use in running away from it or hiding it. It is the underlying truth behind everything that humanity has ever done.
Love and travelling…
I missed her the second she walked away. There I was, waiting for my flight at the airport, knowing that she takes off in the next few minutes on another
To the very last man…
He barely held his horse steady. The air was stained with sweat, blood and fear and the animal could feel it just as strongly as he did. His eyes scanned
Most of the days I’m fearless.
I go through life with a smile on my face and a mountain of faith. I know everything will be all right and all the things I don’t understand –
He sat there and wondered…
The setting sun lazily cast its last rays over a small, deserted alley in a small, deserted town. Soft summer breeze gently stroked the rusted street lamps and startled the
Free, but connected…
It was a beautiful sunset. I was jogging, but for some reason my mind and my body weren’t working together this time. My legs felt as if they were made
Love is not enough
It is strange for a dreamer to have that thought, but even dreamer’s feet have to touch the earth sometimes. Love is not enough. It might be a central pillar
What is it about sunsets…
I’m sitting on the meadow, on top of the small, green hill. I was setting-up my tent, but the sudden silence in the air made me stop and sit on
Crawling in the dark…
– Why is this happening to me? – An old man cried out, a wounded, hurt cry that only those who suffered understand. The alley was dark and damp, and
The rain within
There was nothing outside but rain. I stood by the window, counting the drops and wondering just how many fall in between two heartbeats. Clouds were looming over the city,
This moment now…
We walk through the world dragging so much weight. Like anchored ships that only move am much as their chains let them, we drift through our lives with heavy chains
Have I told you?
Did I say “I love you” enough? I know I can’t change anything now, but these thoughts won’t leave me at peace now. So typical – my last breath will be
Storyteller
Come closer, my friend. I will show you things you never imagined exist before. I will tell you stories no one has ever heard before. I want to know that
To all the brave, dead bees…
People will call me foolish or crazy, or just stupid, but I’ll still admire the small, brave bee. Hopefully, I will never stop seeing the world in that way; maybe I’ll even see more and more of it with every new day.
One of those days…
You live your life, to the best of your abilities. Sometimes circumstances help you out; sometimes you get lucky, sometimes not so much. It is just the way of the
Half an hour
Mark was watching the never-ending landing-taking-off game standing on a safe side of a thick waiting room window. He could see the planes descending, landing and unloading; the engines switching
The beauty of grace
Isn’t grace a beautiful feature? Walking down a busy street, she barely touches you, but you can’t ignore her. Most people struggle to get where they want to be; avoiding
