“Loneliness isn't gray.
It is the color of the sky when it bleeds
crimson rays in the horizon while there you are standing on the edge
somewhere in this boulevard of broken promises, waiting, and waiting for
a love that already left.”

“The sun has collapsed against the vast expanse of the darkening ocean.
Soon the turquoise sea will be completely black like a void. I hate the
ocean at night. It has me thinking about hopelessness and loss. The red
sky a watercolour as the thickening clouds leak together.”

Time Torn
“At twilight I went into the street.
The sun hung low in the iron sky,
ringed with cold plumage.
If I could write to you
about this emptiness--”

“Some people know they'll live until spring and that's all they need to
be happy. When I was feeling good, I just let the sun go down, knowing
I'd see it again next morning. When I felt worse, and it didn't matter
for what reasons, every sunset seemed to me like the end of the world.
Maybe it's true, that the world dies every day at evening and is born
again in the morning. But not always for everybody.”
