The single star on London sky
is white dot shining high
a clear path between two worlds
and we are stuck on planet Earth.

this star is bright and every night
is looking curious down my window
staring into my eyes,
in one month we came so close
my dear star sings me songs
and tells me stories
about people and other mysteries.

in the night between the years
a shy voice can be heard:
dear two thousand eighteen,
please be kind!.
Cristina Dec 2017
I'm holding my head down
as passing near the cemetery
mirroring the motion
of those who I pass by.
there's no confusion
nor a deep illusion
of what we should do
with our life now.
Cristina Dec 2017
I have a devoted hope
with which I dare to stand a chance
to stare with eyes wide open
the hard face of my faith
that wrote lacking shame before our eyes
the life that will never be ours,
the life that will astonish us all.

in a magic day as tomorrow
when the light will rise above
and the dark will disappear
like gravity that brings things closer
all to the oh mighty earth,
like the shadow that always follows
wherever you want to go

we will meet on paved road
our aisle with yellow leafs
closer we will come together
to sin in secret
to kiss in silent
tender lip on tender lip
until one perfect shadow
will become a photography,
imprinted on our memory.
you kissed me, I kissed back..

By the time you will read this, I'll be long gone.

I will not be in the land of dead, nor of alive either. I will be as I was since, well... long before my heart was crushed between lips or fingers or people's thoughts.

I will be here, in a place between your world and mine. In places where the secret code to enter is pain in the chest, days of crying and words never heard of ears that count.

In this vast land is a city with concrete blocks, all gray. The streets are one way roads that travel beyond and above. Roundabouts at every mile that gives chances to go back.

back where?! you might ask.

I do not know to answer to that, I do not know to tell you stories of those who took the route back, or to show you pictures of new places they landed.

But I can tell you about the place where I am at.

Blocks are all around but going straight down the street you'll reach a park.

People stay here day and night with pillows and blankets all spare for just in case.

In case of what?! another good question you might add.

In case that someone who was their friend some time ago will come along. Not for company. No. In this place knowing that you're not alone is enough. no need to interact. The spare pillows and blankets are for those who have the courage to take some steps towards our grieving and pain and... just to hold our hands.

Among others like me, we are not alone. If you want to came and take me back, please do it.

I will be here.

it's been a decade
since the first steps you took
and the most important words
like 'mama' and 'papa'
were the first you said
with your baby voice
melting hearts
of everyone along the way.

it's been half decade
since you figured out
that the most important job
is making your parents proud.

eleven! oh magic number
with 132 months of full laughter,
I wish for you to have
many memories
filled with joyful moments
among your best friends
and your lovely family!

Happy birthday Jan!
sweet eleven years :)

you felt it, didn't you?
shall not claim nothing about it
as no one never will.
I felt it too
your mind touched mine
in that particular moment
we forged a point in time.
