Bruises all over your arms and legs. You clench your fists and the marks become more vivid with each stretch. You smile, you are there – closer to your path, and more determined than ever. Each wound and each mark are proof of your victories. You tried, you dared, you did this! Not fear and […]
I am alive but not awake. I want to love but I only break, And I shiver under your touch Even though I miss him so much. Others have tried to fix me Thinking I and he make a ‘we’. But my world is shattered into pieces, And no matter what he does, he loses. … Continue reading Uneven
You look at him, but he is different. 'How has he changed?' you wonder. He was a stranger, an acquaintance that would bring a few wrinkles in the form of smiles. Another illusion dressed up as a disposable thrill...except he isn't. You wake up the next morning and he is still in your bed. 'Wait … Continue reading Awake
Poker? Yes, because life resembles a game of poker. Some think poker is all luck, that it's easy, complicated, even rigged. Constantly underestimating it, hating it when it doesn't go their way, still getting pumped with each hand dealt. When you think you have it, you don't.

Of course, that giving in is the easier and more comfortable choice, but … Continue reading Lifeless
I unexpectedly realised today that our society slowly but steadily drives us to suicidal moods. So often I have found myself surrounded by posts like: 'Change, don't be the you you were yesterday!', 'Live NOW because you are YOUNGER and tomorrow might be too late', or: Do this, do that, don't settle, be thinner, be the BEST, be the … Continue reading Who are you?
