In no way do I claim to be a poet. Art was always just a way to bring my insides out, and my poems are nothing more but pieces of me. My inner artist that aches for a response asks that I share this blog with people, but my nature of a perfectionist demands that I don't. If you stumble upon this, I appreciate constructive criticism. Remember, though: perhaps you can't see beyond ruins to the building that once was, so you can comment on its architecture. Perhaps, you take a look inside. This is a communion, after all.

Just a Dream.

And i found myself lost
somewhere in a forest.
It was a cold morning
the sun had just rised,
sweetening the moist atmosphere
with a sense of coexistence.
I wasn't alone,
something was there
among those trees,
watching me, marking me.
i could feel it's cold breath on my neck
making me shiver.
its eyes on my back
So, I started running barefoot
never looked back
My face, my feet, my hands
wounded and dirty

Fear filled up my eyes with tears
What was i running from?
My dress,
it's all grey, dirty,
stained with blood
Whose blood is this?
is it mine?
Am i bleeding?
and the music in my ears...
Am i dreaming?
Why isn't the sun rising up?
Time stands still in this place,
painting everything grey

What happened to my memories?
This isn't me, this isn't my hair, my skin.
Wounded, scarred, dirty.
My hands, my dress, my feet, my face.
I don't recognize this face.
What brought me here in the first place?
Am i lost forever?
Never to be found,
never to be remembered?
Always to be alone, afraid, dirty, stained?
