Your Eyes Look Like

Your eyes look like
they have traveled a long way.
Noise drains out my mind.

Slight nuances,
notes,
emanate from your face.

It's like you were never born,
and like you never died,
as if you are eternal,
timeless,
alien,
out of this world,
but so, so close
to every human's heart.

Is it because you have
truly loved,
when none of us ever have?

Why are you here,
why are you hurting yourself,
why are you taking all those risks?

Are you trying to show us,
to teach us,
to truly love?

Many might say that's in vain,
but maybe,
just maybe,
there's a chance,
a spark of hope.

Few of us will know
what life is
and what love is.

But some day
the message will spread.

Some day
we can be free,
we can be ourselves.

Some day
we may be able to love.

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.

Terribly Lost

Thick mists cover the water, mountains loom over me, an old wooden quay leading to nowhere. Oh, I got so terribly lost, I can see through the fog, but I can't feel the cold. Oh, dance with me on this old wooden quay. I take off my dress and feel the wind, the wind that is roughing up the waters, carressing my skin. Come, follow me, my sweetheart, we'll go for a swim and we'll dance under water in the dark. As the waves crush over me and I sink and I dance, I can see through the mist and the dark. Oh, I got so terribly lost.

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.
