Silent Car Ride

Silent car ride,
the world wakes earlier
in all its ugliness.

I don't know
what you dream of.

But I know it's not
the burning scars,
the screaming talking heads,
the faces peeling from everyone.

I wish my only dreams
were nightmares.

Tears on the diamond,
steady rhythm pounding
in my head.

Once a month
my brain hurts.

Get me high
on the pain
so I won't feel the painkillers
anymore.

In desert of my emotions,
sometimes
I imagine things
that aren't there.

The Long And Winding Road

The long and winding road winds up and down the lonely hills, leading me from the wild and wide sea, with stormy winds in my back, through grassy and misty lands, sky overcast, scarf wrapped around my small and slender shoulders, up and down the rocky hills, goats and sheep my only friends on this long, last journey, up into the mountains high, woods all around me, climbing up high towards my resting place. From here I shall watch the sea, the place I loved, and never shall I return.

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.

Just Give Me One More

Just give me one more, one more cup of coffee on this dreary November morning. The wind was throwing rain drops at me like bullets from a gun. Different shades of grey as the day continues. Just one more cup of coffee to get me to the other side.
