Another Reality

Cold morning air
tugging at the rims of my eyes
as I look up into the empty streets.

Cold is encircling me,
my body feels twisted,
turned inside out,
like travelling to another reality.

Oh, how I wish
my brain was nestled
against the crook of your neck,
containing the endless throbbing,
so I can let my eyelids drop
without fear.

But the crystals of air
are cutting into my skin
as I ascend
to spend another day in dullness.

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.

Smithies of My Mind

The fires of my soul are burning hot. I have stirred them up for a long time, for ages. In them I want to forge words of truth, make them pure as light and engrave them with silver, adorn them with the beauty of rare gems. In the smithies of my mind I shall create, I shall bring forth ancient forces of emotion, make them shine in starlight; no, in complete darkness even to make shudder the hearts of mankind.
