What Makes Sense?
In one moment of time... a child is born, another is killed in his mother's womb. A soul is saved, a soul is lost. A war finishes here, another starts there.
Every single second, everywhere... Couples marry, couples divorce. Hope is found, hope is lost. A girl laughs, a boy cries. Love begins, love dies.
And wherever your sight falls... people get together, people dump other people, and more people get sad, happy, nervous, jealous, furious, powerful, powerless, high, low.
Just one night... I found that you are the kind of person who is terribly hard to forget, the person who made a space out of nothing in a shrunken heart and turned it into Neverland.
Just one hug... sensitive fingers and a strongly proud look in your eyes captured my mind, my soul, and my heart.
Now, all these hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, storms, and forest fires that we used to call forces of nature... We know about safety, but can we control them after all? And you know humans are crazy about controlling things... However, I don't mind having you in my heart. I didn't choose, you didn't plan. It's a force of nature... and everything that happens to be there makes sense!

Hi
In a far, faraway place, I'm far, far away from sleep. And the people next door are drinking an' listening to some band playing "Hey, hey, hey, hey, what's going on?"...
At one moment today, I froze in place to recognize the colors of the clouds. It was sunset time at the beach... At that moment, I wondered if you could see this wherever you are! And I badly wanted to ask you, "How are you?"
You can say "Hi, how are you?" sometimes... you know!

The Attic Cat
People look for love like they really know what it's all about. Truth be told, I have been thinking the same way... I was a cat messing around in the attic. My life was heterogeneous, and love was a different brand in each period... I ended up covered with dust.
the experience.
not the young boy I used to be. The cat came down from the attic and ran to the ocean to wash off his fur. Birds were circling the seaweed, and the cat remained down on the sand...
Now I can tell you about love, my bird... As I see you happily flying, I understand you were meant for the sky, and I'm for the earth... Sky and earth can't be one, and neither of them would lose themselves in the other, yet they can face each other until the end of time. It's their job, it's fate, it's a natural thing, like this feeling deep inside you and me.

The Forgotten Question
So, the passion was lost, and the meaning of everything was gone until one day... one certain day, you get the call, and out of the ocean comes the answer to a question that had already been forgotten a long, long time ago.
Believe and hope, hope and believe...

A Mirror
Distracted by age and hormones, lonely by choice, lost in cultures and found in translations, I can't help but keep going, hungry for shelter, parched for life, and ready to finish it...
It was on the beach, face to face with an old dog, my eyes staring into his, like a mirror!!!
