Gaze

Posted on by lignes invisibiles

My look is more vivid than all humanity together

liquids are running from my eyes

and as I walk, I cry

and cry and cry.

My look penetrates the earth’s universe –

down on earth

but it’s almost like looking outside our earth

far away

staring at that endless black.

The reason why people look at me is

the way I am looking at things,

my eyes and my gaze.

It is a gaze of war

it is a gaze of passion

it is a gaze of possibilities

it is a gaze of strength

is is a gaze of freedom

it is a gaze of a mouth wide open screaming.

Every time I walk outside the street

nobody can escape that gaze

even though I almost never look at any particular person

but in the contrary…

I am looking at everyone, as if part of a scene.

Even the most stupid person

can be left indifferent to that gaze

gaze of life and death.

    1. Hello Martina 🙂 I do not know anymore if people in general are interested in poetry and reading it, but it creates a little sparkle in me knowing that at least one person is interested. Thank you for reading my verses!

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.
