Before and after

We carry such heavy burdens, But no pain is without end. There comes a time when you decide To put it down, give it a rest. That day you’ll finally realize The steps you took, mountains you’ve climbed You’ve come so far, you have evolved. You are a different person now. You have outgrown the…

Hope

How do I open up this heart of mine? How do I make it understand it’s safe? There is no other life for me to live; I have to make the most of this. It’s been a while since I laughed out loud. I miss that joyous feeling. I ache for doing what I want…

Awakening

My heart was aching.So much of everything unexpected ran me over.I could not believe what my eyes were witnessing.Was all this real? Or just a horrible nightmare? I couldn’t wake up.I wanted to scream, but I had no sound.In my chest formed a void..My only feeling was hopeless despair. The air around me became a…

Dear me,

You’re free. Free to love and to be loved To stop grieving and enjoy life To part ways with guilt and shame You are allowed to feel joy again To plead for more… to celebrate. You’re free to dream and have high hopes To believe in yourself when no one does. You can be wild,…

Fragmente de timp

De-o vreme încoace mă tot gândesc la voi, cei care pentru o perioadă mi-ați fost alături pe drumul ăsta al vieții. Am schimbat decoruri și sezoane împreună, am scris istorie unii în viețile altora și ne-am îmbogățit reciproc. Am râs, am plâns, am trăit, am simțit, am iubit, am explorat lumea, am cucerit culmi înalte…

An ode to friendship

Remember all those times it was hard for you to breath?I gave you my all just so you can smile. Remember the times you couldn’t take another step?I was there for you.. I was your legs. I wish you knew: that was love. Remember when envisioning the future was challenging?I stood in the dark with you and…

What am I made of?

Some say I’m just a fragile flower born in a war zone. Some say I am a dreamer disconnected from the endless now. Some never understood a single word I said. Some even run away because they think I am a mess. Others seem to think I’m made of rock. Others can’t help but wonder…

Lacrimi

De ce ne tot scuzăm când plângem în fața cuiva? Oare ne scuzăm la fel de des și când zâmbim, când respirăm lângă cineva? În ce fel sunt lacrimile diferite? Din cauză că de cele mai multe ori ele exprimă durere? Vulnerabilitate? Când a devenit vulnerabilitatea un semn de slăbiciune? De ce a fi un…

Transitions

Every sunrise is different and it is a beautifully painted imagery of a transition. But what makes the difference between a beautiful sunrise and a glorious one? From an artist point of view, it is the stuff that fill the frame of the picture where the sun is the main subject. It could be the…

Poem

Nobody knew how hard it was for me to breathe out of this boat.Nobody knew how much I struggled to believe Your word.And even though there’s nothing yet to see,I still dare to believe. Nobody knew the pain I had to face for this.Nobody knew how many tears came down my face.And even though there’s…
