Clouds

Posted on by lignes invisibiles

The times I go to work I don’t question much

I just do it

This kind of automatism can kill

In my attempt to escape automatic behaviours

I am looking for improvisations

I let the child that lives inside me out every morning and see it

sharing the space with other people who are swimming inside their own sea of thoughts

I love to put a smile on people’s faces using the innocence of that child that lives inside me

The times I go to work are the early times

The sky is that large theatre stage curtain

revealing a show of colours for the new day

Today I witnessed with my very own eyes

how the sky would look like if universe was a painter

Sometimes I wonder if the colours of nature

do even compare to the colours painters use

I want to talk about the shapes of the clouds,

the freshness of the sky,

the soul of those colours that create eventually

this floating sky miracle

But I can’t…

A good friend sitting next to me is helping me find the words

I can see the sparkles in her eyes as she observes the clouds

Two kids together now in front of this wonder…

I am taking some notes for later so that I can put this happening into words

But I can’t…

I feel weak in front of that beauty

I just feel that I would like to be the wind,

float up there in between the soft clouds

and take something from their constantly changing colours

Be part of the painting…

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.
