in a world of free verse

       and where

       the sun is always allowing

       a happy life in the shade,

       for everyone to take part

       in the bazaar

       of melancholy and

       little cheap things.

      5.

      I woke up this morning

       feeling light and fresh

       as if nothing would bother anymore

       my blue sky filled with pastel white clouds.

       you broke my soul into so many pieces,

       looking at me

       with your candid and undisturbed face,

       but today,

       all those pieces came back

       in the form of biscuits and gingerbread,

       reconstructing, like a puzzle,

       my life,

       in its absoluteness.

       I woke up this morning,

       being me, again,

       in a world

       where love

       has never left.

      6.

      my green cupboard

       has its own story to tell

       ever since I saw it,

       waiting for me to open it

       for the first time.

       since then,

       we became close friends

       sharing crackers, bread, and nuts,

       and occasionally cashew and pistachio

       as an exchange

       of our wooden

       and genuine love.

       we dream together

       in the afternoon,

       of a life of leisure,

       where I write books

       and it rejoices

       in my simple presence,

       forever, never changing form,

       or appearance or even age,

       so we can be friends

       and write stories side by side,

       in this sweet and continuous,

       suspended time.

      7.

      in your grandparents' house

       you look for old chairs,

       where old memories would sit

       to wait just for you.

       in a long-forgotten time,

       that big white cup of coffee

       and that fresh scent of apple pie

       are your only friends,

       in an empty wooden kitchen

       where no one has been

       for years.

       cozy and surreal

       is your day

       while looking through

       the kaleidoscope

       of times,

       where you can only see

       geometrical shapes

       and split images,

       of your golden past.

      8.

      a square painting

       of a ballerina

       is taking a break

       from a busy day

       at work

       in the silent museum

       just a few roads down

       on Kensington street.

       its wooden frame

       quiet, in its nature,

       is thinking about

       how squares are preferable

       to circles or even triangles,

       in this two dimensional world

       where it is living

       a simple and quiet life.

       no one has ever cleaned

       the dust that accumulates

       over time

       on this painting

       where the ballerina always dances

       when there’s no one around.

      9.

      where does my life start,

       and where does it end,

       only oranges or an apple

       can tell.

       they always enjoy being

       in a fruit basket,

       for as long as

       they are not desired

       by anyone

       and their sweetness

       and flavor

       spread like a silent scent

       in the morning.

       they dream

       about the times

       when they were only
