Is it an illusion? Are you really there? Are
my eyes mocking my tormented soul?
From the sound of that silence, broken only
by simple words, I shared a unique moment. Where were you? What were you doing?
It still seems ethereal, like a dream that
you try to remember in the morning. A glimpse of someone so extraordinary my
mind can’t cope with reality.
In the midst of laughs, sorrows,
insecurities, traumas, anxiety. The heart was racing, the mind soaring between
the imaginary. The fear of rejection slowly clashing swords with the courage of
a kiss.
Sitting on that couch time flew by and
stood still. The cold from that open window filled the room, the sounds of the
street gently breaking the silence every now and again.
The skyline of the city settled the stage
for the lines of the play.
“I want to fall in love…”
The
start of a sentence that left the rest to the imagination.
Sitting in the dark I screamed without
making a sound, trying to break free from the chains I once threw at myself. I locked myself away, too afraid to let myself
out and now I’m struggling to break them.
I left without leaving, my body moved but
my mind lingered. It’s still there, waiting for the hours to pass, for the days
to merge and fade into the past.
You left me without words, wanting to rip
the language apart in my search for what I want to say.
You are beautiful, a wonder left uncovered.
Lucky me for crossing your path while I walked my own. And here is hoping that
they continue in the same direction.
