Tick tock… Time stops stretching, leaning against the dark wooden grandfather clock. All blinds shut and locked. Fever claws running down her spine, cold sweats washing the last remnants of life off her back. Crouching, patiently peeling off the masks, not too sure what her face even looks like anymore. It could be a sad…… Continue reading Tick tock…
A constant hum, the steady and subtle vibration rocks me in some kind of half-sleepiness… Not quite awake, yet not knocked down by the long hours spent getting ready for this, I float in between waters. I wish counsciousness would go for a walk down the aisle, and give me a much needed break.…… Continue reading In between…
The engines are finally roaring as I tilt my head towards the oval window. I haven’t even taken my coat off. My seat neighbour offered to scooch away, to let me make myself comfortable, but I declined the kind thought. I always end up freezing when I fly, and I know I sleep better…… Continue reading One way ticket…
I should have known. I should have known from the start something like this would happen. Just typical of me, wouldn’t you say? But who am I kidding, and how could you know?

I am Udfrielse. I have been judged by Those Whom We Speak Highly Of, of causing irreparable damages to human history. My trial was short, as the crowd claimed justice loudly. And Those Whom We Speak Highly Of knew my liberty was a drop in the ocean, compared to the anger and disturbance of…… Continue reading Udfrielse…
How could I ever translate my love for you into words? It didn’t even exist before we met… I thought I had known love when our eyes first engaged in this mysterious tango, in the middle of the crowd. I thought I had felt it many times… But it was all just silliness.…… Continue reading Us…
She probably was the last one getting the daily newspaper delivered to her door in the neighbourhood. Walking back to the kitchen, she unrolled the paper as the coffee brewed. It rained outside, but she didn’t care… She was off from work, and didn’t have anywhere to go. She’d most probably just stay in…… Continue reading Something in the news…
Do you remember this scarf, carelessly thrown on your couch? I hadn’t announced myself, as I rarely did… I liked to be like a feather in the wind, letting it take me where I needed to be. And every so often, it seems like I needed to be yours for the night. You never…… Continue reading The scarf…
