Hello Instagram, here are a few pictures of wonderful people that somehow stumbled into my life and me. And some doll eyes I found in Paris. And another thing or three. More words I‘ve chased across mostly handmade paper by yours truly to follow.
Soul Of Light
I am now entering another dream
In which all is warm and I get to sleep
Farewelling my consciousness with silver steam
I look up into the clouds and softly breathe
Sleeping, but not dreaming
The nightmare walks inside my dream
A touch, most delicate
The hand refuses to wash me clean
Lake of fortune, let me drink from you
Blood of stars, feed me the truth
My cosmos regenerates itself secretly, i project myself far away
To reemerge so fiercely, in a new dawn that extinguishes the unborn day
Far away is where I hide, where nothing boils but eternal life
Out so far, where no evil eye pierces the floating soul of mine
My body shakes and quakes, all my senses leave my skeleton now
The soft breath of mother sorrow invites me into her house
Our holy ground now quakes and our sacred path now shakes. When did the great above grow so cold? The morningstar tells the untold, and i watch it all unfold. Who is it that wishes death upon my crippled heart? Where do lost memories’ broken bones go to rot? Is it the same place that I search for in the trenches of my soul? Or is it the land of traceless faces, in which death plays his role? Dress my soul in moonlight, save my heart from the abyss. The coldness that the terror of emotions brings. This opera of sorrowful shadows rips my chest open wide to see if deep inside there is room for fire and ice to collide.
Take me where the deathless die
Take out the seven nails in my eye
Take me to where all that flows isn’t torture but sacrifice
Take me to where the dream bird flies

Weary eyes, won‘t you open once more?
See the unseen and let mother sorrow shine upon the shore
The crisp air now fills my lungs, i crystalize from deep inside
Your tears filled up my empty belly, and jittery they hide
Conceal the seal of dark delight, and fight this fight by my side
To slaughter each blind eye, wrongful perceptions of quivering light
We feel the wound begins to heal, repeated prayers as we kneel
Up in flames we go, and ablaze we are, we burn to replace each fallen star
I shed like a snake, my skin comes off
With a silver knife i detach all cutting strings that once felt soft
Fearlessly for the first time, I look into the eyes of heaven
I count, and count, and make it up to six but never seven
My heart and soul, who can stare right through if not you?
Decrypt mother sorrows delict, in my ear her tongue flicked, at my scabs she picked
My body and mind, who can deliver me from eternal warfare inside?
They all said good night when my spirit laid down beside and quietly died
Is it human frailty in the face of divine power, or the pursuit of knowledge or desire? There are lots of questions dancing on my brain like maggots wearing highheels, maybe one day they‘ll be kind enough to take off their dresses made of worry, and feed my heart an answer or three
‚The First Act After The End‘ for @stefanogallici ‘s breathtaking second collection at @anndemeulemeester_official
The First Act After The End
The weary silver moss covered in ashes
As I walk through a dark haze
I see a lake ablaze
A bloodshot reflection of my head
in the laughing fire
And the flames dance around
my burning desire
My skin, which was once pressed
against yours, now marked by sin
I wonder, will my sun ever fade away
like sand in the wind?
Suddenly blackness falls,
whispering the waves of blood call it lust
The ruins of our newborn paradise
now covered in tears of dust
With burning wings two figures appear
at the center of my abyss
In prayer at knees, the prayer
now feeds and I await the deathless kiss
In the ruins of my mortal coil my face
bends towards the broken soil
The first blood after reincarnation and
the first wound dressed as sweet salvation
The bloodstain on the blackened sky
is the wound of existence
And the flood of blood is the parasite
that penetrates into the soul
Echoes of siamese hearts
swallow the stars which I carry within
The sound of tortured love
lights up the sky and the first act
after the end does begin
Thank you to the beautiful team, my heart won’t stop burning, love to all of you
I have been wandering through this cosmos of misfortune, tears of joy, realization, purity….. To see the unseen and to read the unreadable is to die for the sake of reincarnation. Praying for new horizons until my tongue was tied, I was aflame to be anew. Jumping from letter to letter, climbing the mountain of wordlessness, chasing the words of my utmost misery towards the big mouthed sea. Haloed by infinity, endlessness, and me in its big belly, not suffocating but finally being able to breathe. Whilst in its belly, I realize, I have all the stars and moons in mine. This is a slideshow of words, works, babies taken by birds
Sleeping sleeplessly,
as dreamlessly I dream
Of another face pushed,
and a body leaned into the sky
An ancient sacrifice breaks
Against this wall of nothingness
And creatures sing or screech
Whispering for forgiveness
Soft as skin and dressed in white
It flees away
Like feathers, dancing in the air
As slowly they go astray
One by one, infinity comes undone
And everything now is forever
One by one, all has been said and done
We drift out together

Forever grateful, thank you to everyone involved, thank you for believing in me, thank you all from the bottom of my heart

In a strange place
Where crooked trees hold me tight
This cruel place
Where water and tears turn red
With burning eyes, something before me
All hope chokes and is smothered
The light above is but a thorn in my eye
Me in its hand, dreaming to fly
In the mouth of the eclipse I turn to dust
The warmth of it all was but deadly flames
Another sacrifice for it to rise called I
Another rotten seed, another flower to die
Rebirth without a reflection, I am nothing
Nothingness drowns in Nothingness
Roads of infinity abdicate my dignity
Poison in the air is all that‘s left to breathe
My deceased dreams are stacked to heaven
I find shelter in a temple made of their bones
Dead hair is everywhere, holding my four walls together
And bloodhoney sticks to my smothered hopes
It is the taker disguised as the maker of dreams
The innocent lamb that watches me bleed
A cruel shadow embraces my each and every bone
This boiling heart of mine now cold as stone
