PAINFUL SILENCE

The silence between us seems to seep into every pore, crawling under my skin,

leaving me feel hurt and confused. I can only hear the voices inside my head,

remembering all those beautiful moments, getting lost on the roads to 

the past. A past that holds so many happy words and laughter. A past 

that knew no sadness. A past that is just that – past.

IMAGINE

If you can imagine it,

you can archive it;

if you can dream it, 

you can become it.

A MAD GIRL´S LOVE SONG

Another day, another ray of light, another melody in her head. There is this large empty room that

is filled with the clearest tunes softly reverberating inside the walls, inside her head,

inside her every cell. It stirs some tiny feeling inside, something that has long been forgotten.

For too long she hasn't allowed those feelings to raise to the surface. For too long she

has been trying to hide her emotions from the world, even from herself.

She decided that she would give her soul to the music and surrender. Beyond those walls there

would be a life waiting for her, a life that she would not be too intimidated to lead. If she could

only leave those doubts in this room. If she could find a note for every single of her

crazy thoughts she might have a chance ...

A chance to break free from all those boundaries in her heart, 

soaring and breaking free.  She realized she had to create space between them, 

to allow theirhearts to beat separately again, to break free. 

She prayed for faith, hopeful that one day she would be 

strong enough to just let go without doubt and regret.
