LOVE THROUGH WINDOWS
2009I lie in a bed
darkness broken by strips of yellow light
silence broken by music and passing cars
I am naive, young and free
I never felt pain
that was pure..
..only pain that was pleasurable
which made me stretch out
to the roads outside
to the pavements
bathed by the yellow
street lights.
* * *
I lie in a bed
beside a man I have loved
so unconditionally
I felt every imaginable pain now
and I'm near to believe that love
can never be true or painless
that there is always doubt and deceit
Bathed in white light,
I close my eyes
and wish I could be
so trusting again..
..so I can stretch myself out
on the streets again,
be naive, young and free.

BONI (through a window)
2004
I am lying in his room
fragile and exposed
listening to footsteps, cars, motorcycles...
to the music he left playing for me
I can see shadows cast from a street light
from the blinds of his window
the outlines in the walls
I can feel things I never felt before..
..and I can't feel things that I usually do..
so I lie and I wonder..
will I ever be the same again?

I took this picture after typing the poem on my cellphone back then.
