Like every other story teller, I just fail to ignore the call of untold stories, so I narrate...

Written in Anger

It is no longer a wind, blowing the memories of the past
much rather heavy rain, pouring down on us,
and everything streams together as a non stoppable flood.
What if I am tired?
What if I do not want to remember?
What if memories are all left of us?
I do not want to hurt any more,
I do not want to bleed,
I do not want to die nor mourn no more.
The winter chill is way too real,
so I do not want to raise my fists no more;
what if all I want is a pair of warm hands in my pockets?

The past is history
and my pounding head just refuses the pain of remembrance.
What if I close my eyes right this second,
forget history
and just feel the chill from this winter only?
The one freezing my fingers, I mean...
It hurts, you bleed, we die and you mourn;
but this is not yesterday any more.
The sun has long risen upon a new day,
and all which can bring our freezing hands out of warm pockets
is to block whatever is coming at us today...

So glad you are still there, still write. Thank you for this much needed hope.

I am glad to be here as well. Some changes in life and the novel take a lot of my time these days.
But how is Athens doing in these first days of spring? I hope the magical scent of Seville orange blossoms is not mixed with more anger, violence and despair than Greece has already experienced the past year...
