And finally I see them. I hold my breath as I am hiding in the bushes, surrounded by complete darkness and the slightly scary but also calming sounds one can hear at nighttime in the woods. First, the only thing I was able to perceive were their howls, slowly getting louder, coming closer. Then, I noticed some movement through the lense of my infrared camera. And now, they’re heading straight towa...

strangers on the subway

1 min read

Back home, surrounded by strangers. In the city where I grew up, so many people I don’t know. Old friends all gone, living somewhere else, only home for Christmas. But who am I to judge, I’m not home any more often. I avoid the heavy blanket of anonymity as well. I stand in a crowded place, squeezed from every side. The subway doors open and close ceaselessly, letting people in and throwing others...

I hate loving you

How I could stare at you for hours Admiring the beauty in your face In the air a soft smell of flowers Of ugliness there’s not a trace

Before you there’s never been anyone Making me feel so easily understood But now all the excitement is gone I know I have to let go of it for good

You told me you don’t feel the same way And I know that I will be more than okay But for now it hurts; I had n...

snowball fights

Sometimes we tend to forget it. It’s always staying with us but some days we’re just too busy being adults to notice it. Yet there are few moments in which it is loud enough for us to hear. It is getting all excited and laughing wholeheartedly when it starts to snow and the ground slowly gets covered by a soft, white layer. Somehow, it gets pulled outside in the freezing cold, warmed by the feelin...

Oh.

Oh. So it was her. Out of all people I’d considered (which did not include her), it had to be her. The one that I least expected to be able to do something like this to me. The one that I had trusted the most. But no matter how often I blink, the message on her phone doesn’t vanish. It is written there in black and white, and it’s probably been there for ages. Maybe she wanted to tell me to clear ...

bittersweet

Because with every inch that we miss you We carry a little piece of you around And all of us know that it is true We only need to keep it safe and sound

And as the wind softly moves the meadow
We know that you are right here Not hiding somewhere in the shadow But creating a bittersweet atmosphere...

Jolene

Inspired by the song “Jolene”

She doesn’t even know how much it hurts me. To see how easily she could take him away from me. And how deep I would fall. He’s my everything but to her he’s just a challenge. She wants to win his heart just for the sake of it. Knowing that she can easily do it, she holds an enormous power. Over him and over me. Him, the one who means the world to me. And me, scared t...

Sacrifice

I saw my life flashing before my eyes. Not to exaggerate the situation but that’s exactly what happened. I clenched my eyes together, heard a loud noice and saw nothing but an extremely bright light. And then suddenly there he was, making time freeze, the noise go quiet and the light fade. Was this an angel in the shape of my dad? Or my dad in the shape of an angel? I couldn’t tell, I didn’t beli...

They are here I see them They see me

But do they? They talk With me

Or without?
I wouldn’t know
I’m just happy to be here

But am I?...
