Mask

Everyone was praising him about how good he is, how calm and peaceful he is, but for him, it was a lonely place to be in. All he wanted was to be treated like everyone else is. When somebody said good about him, he felt like he was being cornered. He dreaded those words coming out of everyone he met.

Tired of all of it, he tried to act like everyone else around him. When somebody said bad about him, he never tried to change what was being said, instead he was smiling inside, and for the first time in his life, he felt like he belonged somewhere.

He kept doing that until he can’t do it anymore. But, that mask ruined his life, and in the process he lost himself.

Truth

 Having truth on your side gives you some kind of power that goes even far beyond Death. Strength to face anything, forgive mistakes even if we do something insane. I haven't done anything that I can't say openly about, the one thing I kept it as a secret was this, we had so many kittens in our home, they were all feeding on syringes, of course, without needles. It was like four or five of them, but when I returned it to the place they rest, one of them was not responding well, it's health deteriorated and it fell and all these time I had this thought that if I placed it little more carefully, maybe it wouldn't have fallen. The next day, there was this Rose bloomed in front of our house, it felt like I had to do something, so I took it and placed above its grave, I think my mother saw that, and she had a good laugh about that.

Travel

 What will I do if someday I have to move out of this house? I will travel to places no one reached. Why? Maybe I will find my broken pieces to fix myself like nothing ever happened in my life. Then where will I go, I will go to heights to be with clouds, and see a world outside of human perspective and someday I will come back to enjoy the rising sun and wish never an afternoon from now on. Instead we skip to the setting sun and finally welcome the  Moon to see the stars.

Sleep

 What will I do if this is my last day of Life? Like every other day, I will breathe. We invite the monster to have a final say, and they try their best to close my eyes, and we fight just to keep our eye from getting closed. Muscles develop in our eyelids by doing so regularly. Sometimes I think how peaceful is to submit to the tendency to sleep, a deep and conscious sleep, but something keeps telling me it's not the kind of sleep anyone wish for, still I like when I was a kid, how I wake up looking at the clock, five more minutes, that comfort in sleeping that way, how five minutes feels like five seconds.
