Underground Lake

Silver sparkles above
in the pitch-black.

Light emanating from the water,
small creatures glowing in an azure light.

Sweet sounds of dripping water
distract from the dangers in the dark.

Her silver hair spreads on the lake
like a shining carpet of liquid crystal.

Soft features carved into the velvet skin,
dark and blue as the night.

Tender lips, slightly parted,
purple eyes gazing at the wonders above.

Sweet song echoing and emanating
from the dark black stone of the cave.

Saturday Night

Let me introduce a new label to you. It won't be a label I'll post a lot under, but it might be interesting to some of you: Writing. I'll post some short stories, maybe essays, and in general longer texts under this label. Here is a short story I wrote for a contest once. It didn't win anything, but since the whole thing is over, I can now post it here. Enjoy.

All the Universes

Light travels fast, light travels far, come and travel with me and with light... far, far away... to the farthest realm... darkness surrounds me, but soon the sky lights up with millions and millions of stars and I am not alone. Oh, sweet cosmic abyss, embrace my poor soul and make me immortal, so I can see... so I can feel... all the universes... all the universes out here... swimming through time until the end of it and the start of a new time in oh so many dimensions... spread out, crumbled up, sticking together, floating, rolling, turtleneck dimensions.

This was an early picture that I took with my mum's first digital camera. I had lots of fun with the macro function in our backyard and in some of the parks in our little town. That was before I was made aware that people would usually deal drugs in those parks and was forbidden to go. I went anyways.
