Happiness!

So weak, so hollow.
Surrounded by people,
embraced by loneliness.
I walk with trembling feet,
towards a path not destined.

My hands are cold,
skin is pale.
Heart pumping to let me live.

My thoughts are unhinged,
and the brain is numb.
My arms empty,
with no meaning, no satisfaction,
happiness!

MIRROR MIRROR

When I look into the mirror,
I see a girl,
Smiling back at me. 
With a hope in her eyes, she beholds the dream of a new world.
Where there would be no barriers, no limitations and no differences. 
Envisaging a world yet to be born!

When I look into the mirror,
I see a Superhero.
Waiting to discover his powers. Wanting to unleash them and make us rid of the
mistakes made by the owners of authority.
Waiting to correct the wrong and make it right. With a little chutzpah, being stupid but being the hero we all need!

When I look into the mirror,
I see my life.
A vision which excites me and gives me a strange pleasure.
I see people around me. Those who I see my life with.
Those with whom I share memories of laughter and sorrow. Of joy and despair.

When I look into the mirror,
I see myself.
A crazy woman with more than a thousand questions in her head.
Naïve inquisitiveness about everything that is happening around. A very strange desire for change and a need for inspiration.

When I look into the mirror,
I see a world.
Unseen by many. 
I say this because that is my imagination. My space.
A place where there is no place for being discontent.
A place where you can run wild and carefree.

When I look into the mirror,
I see this all.
And I see a dream for all of it to become true.
