Day 2253, standing.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I like to stare at my pencil

imagining what I could paint

Day 2252, mine.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Sometimes I know what I see

and you don’t

23/05/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, abstract, life, psychology 2 Comments

Day 2251, curious.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Do you realize

we are the only animals

with an inside

from where we look curious

to an outside

Day 2250, light.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I looked up today

before I took the steps

not to pray

or to see the light

but because it was a beautiful sight

Day 2249, looking up.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I wonder if the sky reflects in the windows

like your mood in me

~

or is it just because

i look up at you

Day 2248,

Day's pictures, Poetry

Standing still

inside

on stairs that only go down

to a door

that you know well

from the other side

~

why do we stand still

for what we know

19/05/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged black and white, life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology 2 Comments

Day 2247, ways.

Day's pictures, Poetry

We are all going

our own

parallel ways

Day 2246, besides.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I feel safe with you

though I can’t see as far

as when alone

besides you

17/05/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged colorful, flower, life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology, spring 2 Comments

Day 2245, from dust.

Day's pictures, Poetry

You can blow a lot of air

or take it all in

~

either way

this way

make sure you never choke

on the never settling dust

nature is not as beautiful

as we picture it

Day 2243, mist.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I am often curious in the mist

in the things I barely see

when the weather is clear

Day 2241, it seems.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I didn’t see what I saw

til I froze my perspective

~

I now see it

floating mit air

that I have no ground

to stand on

~

the ground is maybe there

I guess

but not as our reality

it seems

Day 2240, resonate.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The light

is often presented

through mesmerizing walls

~

charisma dictates

a sleight of hands

the eyes away

from you

Day 2238, noise.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I can turn up the heat

and drive you out

but I am so old

that even the noise I make

will scare you away
