Poetry

Day 3086, concrete.

Daily picture, Poetry
I was riding a wave
high on adrenaline

it steered me away
I realized
from a reality

it was not the sea
that I floated on
but the concrete walls
of the world around me

Day 3085, side.

Daily picture, Poetry
The world shifted 
the curtains were makeshift
for there was something to hide

an ugly truth
coming from the…

Day 3084, till you open it.

Daily picture, Poetry
The metaphor of a door
the other one you could have opened

as far as I know
all unknown doors
lead to the same
darkness
till you open it

and start walking

Day 3083, I couldn’t.

Daily picture, Poetry
The small part of the wall 
that was left
was huge

I couldn’t get around it

Day 3082, side.

Daily picture, Poetry
I still remember my first window
the view when I looked out

it was not much
but looking back

I wish I could do that now
from the other side

Day 3080, it seems.

Daily picture, Poetry
It is difficult to see
if in the distance
where we seem to get closer
we really do

Day 3079, look.

Daily picture, Poetry
A part of me stares at me
in a mirror
but I don’t see
the problem
the other half
till I do
realize

Day 3078, no.

Daily picture, Poetry
Do we ever change our head
and what moves inside

28/08/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3077, life is a riddle.

Daily picture, Poetry
What side of the double stairs
going up
do I take

when I am not closer
to the answer

Day 3076, from me.

Daily picture, Poetry
I am curious
for what to see in the window
furthest from me

that’s why I always look
through new windows
for me

because
it might be the one
furthest away

from me

Day 3075, loss.

Poetry
The memories from old photos  
look so much better 

must be the distance in time
times memory loss

Day 3073, little wings.

Daily picture, Poetry
There is a little house
attached to yours
where you live
close to you
where you can
fly away
when your small 
and grow wings

Day 3072, shadows.

Daily picture, Poetry
Black shadows creep up

while the sun rises

it must be me

sinking deeper


but why trust a shadow

Day 3067, confused.

Daily picture, Poetry

I sit here now
listening
to me
from yesterday

when I realized
the best path
is the one I walked
the day before
yesterday

I don’t know
how I arrived
here

Day 3066, what is.

Daily picture, Poetry
I am just
in my world
focussed
on nothing
but what is
important
to me

16/08/2024 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged free will, life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3062, in awe.

Daily picture, Poetry
Listen to the call of some 
doors are not meant to be opened

try to listen unlocked
to be drawn
closer
a movement
a harmony wills
closes
your eyes

in awe
