The Fall

Posted on by lignes invisibiles

I never cut myself the way I did right now

and the water which is running through me,

it never left such burning marks on my skin,

the way it does right now

the wrinkles on my face did never before

look intense,

just like right now

and the heart never before screamed

with such a broken throat and infinite pain

never before that very moment.

What is the piercing of the soul,

what is the loss of sight,

I suppose they both

leave a face white, white and cold,

like the one a ghost must have,

if having any

then you are looking for the drug of oblivion,

asking friends and acquaintances.

But one thing is for sure,

pain makes us believe in things,

which do not exist;

things, which have no legs and barely can walk.

So before falling again, think about it.

A fierce warrior, a demonic beast,

which doesn’t take any breathe at all

in front of others,

this is how this kind of love,

which breaks, transforms everyone.

You then

chase that open yarn,

in an explosion of threads

and you try to put them all together.

Thinking that you might

start over and over again,

at a different time,

on another opening of a different yarn.

I started writing when I was a child. When I was a child they used to call me "Lallina". I come from Corfu, a small island in the Ionian Sea, Greece. In the past I used to live for three years in Germany and Berlin. After doing my Master and living in Germany I have decided in September 2018 to move to Barcelona. Spain is a magical country and I decided to move there after living in Germany to change my life and myself. Initially my plan was to study theater in Spain, but later I started building small puppets and entered the world of puppets for a while. Now I am are more interested in painting. As for writing, it was always my best companion. Empecé a escribir cuando era niño, en la escuela. Cuando era niña solían llamarme "Lallina". Vengo de Corfú, una pequeña isla en el mar Jónico, Grecia. En el pasado vivía durante tres años en Alemania y Berlín. Después de hacer mi maestría y vivir en Alemania, decidí mudarme a Barcelona en septiembre de 2018. España es un país mágico y decidí mudarme allí después de vivir en Alemania para cambiar mi vida y mi mundo interior. Inicialmente, mi plan era estudiar teatro en España, pero luego comencé a construir pequeños títeres y entré al mundo de los títeres por un tiempo. Ahora estoy más interesado en la pintura. La escritura, siempre fue mi mejor compañero. Bueno, probablemente descubrirán también algunos bocetos. En 2020 comencé también a grabar algunos de los textos, que están disponibles en soundcloud. El propósito era poner los textos a disposición de las personas que no pueden ver.
