Let me close your eyes! Let me dive a little deeper…
15th second
Nothingness… Thousands of questions filling my brain. Hundreds that I asked myself and thousands that I couldn’t…
The beginning or the end of everything, doubt or reality, darkness or light…
1st minute
Vague scraps of memories… Which ones have touched my heart? Which ones just so? What’s the reason I prefer the darkness? My soul is black bile…
Am I to live with this?
3rd minute
From purple to yellow, my brain’s messages to my soul… For those who can decipher them! Sometimes a seashore, sometimes noisy city unhappiness.
What’s the reason why I endure even though I’ve decided a thousand times not to choose unhappiness? What do you say? Or…
LOVE?
I suddenly shuddered…
I’ve heard that the truth warms the bones.
Maybe it’s a lie…
5th minute
That’s where I’m going.
Let the elephants do what elephants do in your head!
And they’d ask you?
Let the dream shake me, you and even him…
How many billions of ugly dots are there, so what if a few of them are blue?
BLUE! DEEP BLUE!
The sea, you, me and there…
Hope itself!
Am I going to lose it?
What would you do?
Me?
Do I look like one?
