"Red roses in May

Could not help to let me stay

And wild peonies in June

Could not let it be over so soon

I still hear you, late at night

When I'm swooning at the moon

Please stay here by my side

And sit with me until noon

Just quietly laughing, silently talking,

I'm learning to let go of you soon

The trees in the Spring,

Let our love story begin

Loving you, caring for you,

It is something natural to do

Please, don't go away,

And please, please, please stay

We can't be over so soon

Still pining for the moon,

With all the wild peonies in June

We can't be over so soon"

Bear with me, lately I've been writing music, and this is what I came up with yesterday:

"Oh burn me out

Out of love and out of sight

Oh burn me out tonight...

Flickers of a new future

Unfolding in the air

Flickers of new hope

I know is there

So let the soft grass weep

And the willows turn and keep

My sadness inside

Let the sun burn through

And the fairies dance

The sun burn through

Just for one last chance"

“We are the Growers. We are Nature, planting seeds to create nature from under the ground. We are sick of being kept here. There are people that oppose us staying unnoticed and want to make war with human kind. They say it’s time that Nature demands its own rightful place. And we are not the only ones. There are also people living under the Sea, that make water ripple and shine and add some when there’s too little. And the people above the clouds, the People of the Sky, who blow clouds from their breaths and make it rain and make the Sun go up in the morning and down in the evening. The ones from the Stars and the Moon are the trickiest, but even they are itching to spit out the truth. The four races of Nature are sick of humans abandoning the Earth, polluting it. And Nature is going to revolt against it.”

Excerpt from my book: “In the Cracks Between Everyday Life”

I met him in the dark on my way to the railway station on the 25th of December. My story abruptly stopped there, while waiting for the train on platform 4. My family gave me a sweet grave with wild white peonies around it, nearby the church. Just, as I would have wanted it. In the church echoed the psalms my grandmother was singing for me. The notes blew like leaves in the wind, reaching my dearest ones. My parents cried tears as big as waterfalls and so did my little brother, who I had taught how to play the cello from a very young age already and whom I was very close to. The day I disappeared, I left a big hole in the lives of many. As my coffin got carried to the middle of the church, a boy entered and sat in the back, his eyes glinting in the reflection of the candles. A grin slowly came across his face, knowing the truth. What if he told you I didn’t die? What if my story hadn’t stopped that day? What if this was just the beginning?

A story needs to start somewhere...

This is the first snippet from the prologue of the book I hope one day to bring out!~

So I don't know why I thought about this, but it suddenly came to me that I was still wondering about the riddle in Alice in Wonderland: 'Why is a raven like a writing desk?' and I think, although Carroll later tried to give an answer because of questioning readers, it's beautiful that originally, it didn't have any answer at all. Because that's what it was all about. The Mad Hatter says to Alice "why is a raven like a writing desk?" and she says, "I don't know, why IS a raven like a writing desk?" and the Hatter responds "I haven't the slightest idea" and I don't know exactly why but that always rang a bell for me. The Hatter is trying to show Alice that not everything is supposed to make sense and that sometimes, when looking for answers, you find out that there is none. He's trying to show Alice that her head (wonderland) might be weird and she might not know who she is, but that it doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing to not know all the answers. I think it's genius, personally. Why is a raven like a writing desk? I haven't got the slightest clue.

The Wonderland Riddle, 25/9/'19

Trees change colors too

So change! Be yellow, orange, or green

Show them what they haven't seen

Be pink, purple or even grey

No limit to your unique array

Be as red as a flame or as white as the sun

Show them what you have done

So change! Even if the color is blue

Because trees change colors too

And so may you

It was a dark night, a cold night, without you. And the nightsky was emptied of stars. Only the moon was hanging crooked on a paper thin thread and every night, I feared it would fall too.

But while I was only looking at the moon, I didn't realize my own feet were slipping into the everlasting depths of the ocean, until I could not stand no more. While grasping for the moon, I took my last breath.

Focused on you, 16/7/2019

“She’s a Flower Child. strung from Wildflowers Petals in her hair and Seeds below her eyes she makes good moments Grow in the Cracks between everyday Life” “She’s an Ocean Child. Crafted from Salt Waves inside her head and Tides behind her eyes with the abilities of a Mermaid making you do whatever she likes” “She’s a Sky Child. Blown into Shape a Breeze between her teeth and Dreams sparkling in her eyes she makes the Night and Day collide with a trail of colours in the Sky”

Do you feel the weight of the world clasped between our fingers? Can you feel it, smell it, hear it electrifying our very souls? Did you know that one tiny moment could change the entire course of the universe? Did I? Would you have taken my hand if you did?

This was the moment

The world collapses down onto you some moments in your life. Ruin created by a thousand explosions of the seas sinks onto your shoulders. And in the ruin, the most beautiful thing you will ever come to find within yourself. Your heart. It left you, unattended and buried in the bottom of the sea, surrounded by sea shells and crabs. But now the seas have surrendered to the weight of the universe, your heart once again belongs to you. It looks different now, it is a bit more bruised than you remember and it has these tiny scars where it used to be smooth skin. But it is still beautiful as ever and all you needed in your life. It needs to learn to beat again and it needs to learn to be comfortable in your body, but that's okay. It has been neglected for so many years that it needs to learn how to be itself again and it will bring you along on that journey. But don't worry, eventually, your heart will be able to beat and will be able to be itself, even with the scars it has accumulated over the years buried in the sea. It will have learned that not every person holds a knife or a fist. It will have learned that not all walls are to be held up. It will have learned that it's in its nature to be vulnerable and beautiful at the same time. For the purpose of the heart is not to hide itself into the depths of the ocean, afraid to be attacked when it comes to the surface, but to beat so fervently that the whole ocean can hear and feel and acknowledge its beauty.

On how it is to feel again

The wind is howling outside, but within it feels like the middle of a hurricane. A turning point. Something good. Like if you would stretch your hand just far enough, you could feel the dirt of the world. But here, within this eye of the danger, everything felt safe. Comfortable. Good.

Your fingers turn greasy from stretching out your hand, your soul. You stretch them out so often for other people, it becomes more of a burden than anything else. You are strung by buttons, wildflowers and something sweet, but it feels like you are bursting at the seams with possibility. With everything you can be, instead of this shell of the person you once knew. And suddenly it all seems so clear, yet the world cannot. The world cannot look right into your soul, because the world wouldn't understand at all. And it never would.

A world that makes people into dolls, 15/6/2019

Mr Graven suddenly looked very assertive, giving my father a reassuring smile. This man could make you feel like everything would always be alright. There were plenty of cases before me, and he solved all of them. Always returning lost people back to their parents, partners or friends. He had never disappointed anyone. I wonder how he felt when he couldn’t find me.
