The sheepy dragon

I was raised to believe I was a sheep and sent to church to pray for my sins every time I burped fire.  I leaned to run with the other sheeps in my heard and leaned to love them all, we were all sheeps after all  or so I belived.

I always knew not to cross the line and be quiet, I was trained for all that but even so deep inside it all fell wrong.  I was having to walk the earth when all I deemed of was to fly and dance with the clouds.  I was forced to look up to everyone when I felt I should admire them from above. 
So many times I was punished when I raised my eyes to watch the beautiful blue sky where all my dreams belonged.  My clouds were my soft coushins and they made me bend my knees and kneal on the concrete.

It took me a life time to have the courage to look in the mirror to find out who I truly am.  You cannot hide your true nature!  It's like a sin that will always haunt you until you surrender and accept it.  I was looking in the mirror hoping to find a sheep and found myself facing a dragon.  I ran away as fast as I could and carried on with my life pretending to be a sheep and praying that no one else will ever notice the dragon in the room! 
Every now and then,  in the darkness of the night I used to take a quick peak in the mirror hoping that I will change.  I was praying asking for the dragon to vanish somehow and for my life to be like all the others sheeps I knew.

One night while I was peaking I heard the dragon talk to me:
- it's OK,  it's just us.  You don't have to pretend. 
-pretend?  I don't pretend!  I want you to leave!  Can't you see???  You make my life a living hell.
- Do I??  Why is that?  He wanted to know
- All that I was ever taught was to be a sheep!  And now you're telling me I am a dragon!  Who wants to be a dragon?  And who knows how to be a dragon? I replayed annoyed
- Oh,  that sounds like we have a problem.
-we??  What problem do you have?!
- Well I have no idea how to be a sheep!  So I guess we're even,  he added
- I can teach you! I added
- but you're not a sheep!
- I am great at pretending!  I insisted
- OK,  what will I be called then?  He wanted to know
- The Sheepy Dragon! 
- that sounds like a bad idea!  What if I eat the sheep?  He wanted to know
- Then we're fucked!!

Here but not there

Am I still me if the one I was was yesterday got lost? Am I still me if the feeling that keept me alive till now vanished in thin air?  My feet were never bare before, my dream never dared to be born. The words are just that words they can't touch unless they're meant to caress . Let me sit at your feet because I feel like not because you want me to. Let stand behind you because I like the view better.  Let me be me because I don't feel like faking anymore else anymore.  I have nothing  offer you but have everything to give to myself. 

Despre tine

Azi, de ziua mea am realizat mai mult ca oricand ca trebuie sa ma intorc la tine sa iti multumesc. Chiar daca iti repet zi de zi cat de mult te iubesc, nu cred ca ma auzi cu adevarat! Am sa ti-o repet din nou ' TE IUBESC' pare un un cuvant banal, lipsit de sens si poate ca nu va face niciodata dreptate sentimemtelor mele. Cred ca undeva in stele a fost scris ca noi sa ne cunoastem si mai ales sa ne iubim. Cred ca tot acolo ne-a fost scrisa viata pagina de pagina pe parcurs ce noi am scris-o cu fiecare gest, gand sau respiratie, acum am sa scriu eu pagina iubirii noastre. Cred ca vremea a sosit sa iti spun adevarul, desi il stii nu stiu daca crezi cu adevarat dar nu-ti face nimic, avem o eternitate inainte, asa ca nu e nici o graba. Viata aici s-ar putea sa fie scurta sau lunga (tii minte ca plangeam ore in sir de teama ca am sa te pierd?, acum stiu, e imposibil) sa stii ca ti-a fost dar sa fii al meu si numai al meu! Sa stii ca sunt parte din sufl...

Casa din vis

In vise sunt asteptata mereu de aceiasi casa. Timpul n-a schimbat nimic din infatisarea ei sau a strazii pe care se afla. E un loc unde timpul s-a oprit pentru a ma astepta pe mine. Poata casei, usa, geamurile sunt mereu deschise indemnandu-ma sa intru.Florile sunt mereu inflorite si inmiresmate tanjind dupa atingerea mea. Probabil intr-o lume fara de lege si fara de timp aceea casa imi apartine si si plange de dorul meu asa cu si eu in lumea ciudata a viselor ma intorc mereu  de unde am plecat....
