Nights are dark only for those with a poor imagination. When darkness envelops the roofs and when everything settles down, open your window and look deep into the sky. Inhale. Do you feel a smell of the mown hay? Can you hear a sound of the waves? Do you feel a pinch of frost on your face? Spread your arms, embrace the universe. Send your dreams into the space. Let them intertwine with others, let them find their way. Each spark is one dream. Each dream is one soul.

I’m here again

Unlocking my heart, behind the sleepy eyes I spread both arms wide and hug the sky. Clouds caress my dreams. Hey, you! Come here! Come closer, everybody who’s willing to love! On a fluffy carpet we’ll hover over the cities. We’ll wave to the birds, dance with the leaves, swim among the stars. Come on now! Open your hearts.

“My dreams are a cruel joke. They taunt me. Even in my dreams,I’m an idiot who knows he’s about to wake up to reality. If I could only avoid sleep. But I can’t. I try to tell myself what to dream. I try to dream that I am flying. Something free… It never works.”
