Poetry

Day 2156, feel.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I feel so light

and still I bend

Day 2155, I hide.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I hide my cards and behind them

I hide behind what I used to, maybe my nature

I hide in plain sight

I hide in my surrounding

I hide the mirrors, afraid for what I don’t see

15/02/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology 1 Comment

Day 2154, don’t leave.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I hang here in style

like I was drawn

by you

14/02/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, nature, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology 1 Comment

Day 2153, beauty.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The beauty after a long life

is in the impression you get

after a glance

Day 2151, calm

Day's pictures, Poetry

The cold might hover over me

when the moon pulls

~

I stretch myself calm

and stare at you crumbling

into me

Day 2150, can only.

Day's pictures, Poetry

It was so quiet

the horizon

it disappeared

together with the sea I was floating in

~

I knew that when I move

the dream would be gone

but I had to

the sea can only take

Day 2149, looking forwards.

Day's pictures, Poetry

There is little reflection

when we all stand still

in a cold world

~

standing still makes you forget what it is

to look forwards

you only remember where you were

and maybe are

Day 2147, little bird.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The branch I sit on still moves

my shadow is still there

~

I am looking for my next meal

I am also it

~

I am small and nervous

but at least I can fly

Day 2146, meaning.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The branches close to me move slightly

the trees in the distance are dark

in a blur

it feels to me like chaos

paused

~

I just stare at it

wondering why

I want it to mean something to me

Day 2144, prevention.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I made it easier to climb higher

it takes some planning and effort

but the view is great

~

besides the view

I can also easily clean the different exhausts

coming out of the place where I live

and prevent a fire

04/02/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 2143, I see you.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I see you every day

walking in different directions

at the same time

at the same place

~

you are a different person

each day

for some reason

you are always there

~

I don’t know you

though I could wait for you

where I see you

we might meet

~

and if we don’t

I will imagine you

your life

what you do

Day 2142, zelfportret.

Day's pictures, Poetry

He me looks at myself

just looks without presumption  

~

he kills me

I fill it all in what is not said

what just that eye that looks does to me

~

please look away you can’t I can

I turn you off I can

if I can

Day 2139, abandoned.

Day's pictures, Poetry

This room was abandoned, but from the street, I could see the most beautiful light reflecting.

It is a shame that no one is inside to enjoy this treat.

Maybe I can help fix the windows and clean up, so she can wake up again in her old room with the beautiful view.

Day 2138, thoughts.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I stacked large pieces of paper, in my imagination.

They are unwritten with all my thoughts.

I feel them, but don’t know where they are.

Day 2137, missing.

Daily picture, Poetry

Only the reflection shows my darkness.

28/01/2022 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, Poetry, psychology, window Leave a comment

Day 2136, perfection.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Even if the thin layer between breaks perfectly, the other will still seep, in.

Perfection is just part of the illusion.
