And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones

SWEPT

swept away by the current
carried away by the wind
brought to nothingness by the air
neither here nor over there

and if you seek those memories now
I'm not sure if you'll ever know
where to look or where to go
will we ever know?

GROWTH

My little child, I wanted you to grow
to see the world and to know its mysteries.
And to find wonder in everything around you
and to be able to survive no matter what they do to you.

But I never wanted you to learn the ways of us adults.
I never wanted you to lie or steal or cheat.

I guess I was asking for too much.

KEYS

keys
jingle jangle
little bits of
wonder and
organisation.

cling clang
they get lost
more often than
not.

they open
doors.

GLANCE

She glanced at him for a moment, not daring to let her gaze rest for more than a split-second.

What went on in that mind, that mind which had taken her ages to even begin to comprehend? And now it was all shut off again.

She wasn't sure, and it was scary not to be sure.

She wished she were sure.

STORAGE

I stared into the room.

Toys. Books. Dolls that looked new but were eerily shaped like the remnants of yesteryear.

That was all I had left of my childhood? I knew I should have felt disappointed, but instead I felt... warm.

I was happy to know I did once exist as a child. That I wasn't like this from the start.

MYTH

Was it a myth, or was it true?

That story about the monster of East Street... That one which described it as ferocious, terrible and man-eating. I knew it was silly, but I was terribly scared.

That story was meant for little kids, right? Not me...

MONSTERS? Bah. They didn't exist!

YOGA

She relied on yoga for relaxation. It was seen as cheesy by some, but it did work.

Omm...

She sat in lotus-position, closing her eyes and letting her consciousness leave her for a while. Omm.

It was so relaxing.

TOFU

cows survive while
the beansprouts die
hey, why?
why do plants get
less of a chance to
live life?
why only animals?
stupid legged beings.

we want life.

PILLS

She looked at the pills by the bedside.
Every day, she had to eat two.
Two were supposed to cure her.
Two were supposed to slowly free her from the illness.
Two pills, that she had to swallow forcefully when others were enjoying their breakfasts.
With tears in her eyes, she grabbed the whole lot and swallowed them.

OPTIONS

What options do I have in life?

Good or bad?
Love or hate?
Joy or sorrow?
It seems easy to pick.
But do I even always have a choice?
Does life really allow mistakes?
I'm not sure.

What options do I have in life?

HOOKED

hooked
I'm there
can't get off
just suspended in
midair

choosing between two paths
is harder than I thought
but now I don't know if
I'm making the right choice

somebody save me

CLIPBOARD

She stared at the clipboard. WORK. MORE WORK. Work work work work. She'd gotten used to it by now- that was office life. The same old mundane thing everyday- but did she dare to dream? No, it would mean a step out of that comforting routine, and she did not want that, ever. Dreams were for foolish people.

POUR

The rain poured down at her windowsill, echoing her thoughts and feelings. She cried as the sky cried along, each drop carrying a kind of lingering sadness. She looked up at the vast blue sky above her, her heart crying out to be heard. She wanted to be free, she did. Always.

FIGURE

Her stately figure adorned the ballroom floor as she glided across it gracefully, like a swan in a sea of crows. Her beauty outshone that of every single lady in the room, yet the prince was not charmed by her. Not one bit.
