Simplicity

- You have to be aware of the fact that I am a very complicated person.
- Oh, and why would you be complicated?
- Because I never do what I am supposed to do, I never reason enough above things, never meaure pros and cons properly.
- So how do you take a decision?
- My heart?



- That doesn't make you complicated, my island, that makes you simple.
- Simple? Are you kidding? The majority of people doesn't understand that at all, they label me as emotional, as crazy.
- But if you feel and act according to your feelings you are simple in nature. Others make you feel complicated, but you are essential, you are extremely natural, bare nature.
- Oh, I never thought about it.
- Indeed. Rationality is a superstructure, something that you want to impose on you because you believe you should, because others behave like that. If you are all emotion you are genuine, you are loyal, you are reliable...you don't betray overnight, you can't!
- Yeah, but I am failing being rational anyway. I cannot be like that, I am all heart.



- So what does your heart tell you now?
- To fly there?
- Where?
- Where you are!
- Oh, you see? That is very simple as a decision. You know what your heart says and you follow it, without opportunistic thoughts, without utilitarian thinking, that's great!
- And how would you react to that?
- That's simple too.
- And?
- You'll see, my island, you'll see.
- :)

I just finished to watch Fighting Club, with Edward Norton and Brad Pitt, and, while reading these lines of you, I thought, "she seems like Edward Norton talking with Brad Pitt".
Hope you have already seen this movie.

Let me be your Muse

Breathing is just a rhythm. Let me help you create the music. Let me be your Muse, the one lightening you. Living is not believing. Let me help you believe in something more. Let me be the one driving your pen, kindling your inner language, pulling it all out. Let me speak your language, let me teach you my language. Do trust me, do let me enter. Do talk to me, as if I was a song to be written, Please, please, let me light your sun, the sun you are suffocating inside your dark soul. Let me be your Muse, that is all I've ever needed, all I've ever wanted. To be your Muse. Play my music, act my script, please, listen to my words, recite them, recite them all, but not as if they were cold and heartless, do take them in you, make them yours. Let them inspire you. Let my words inflame you. Let me inspire and inflame you. Don't ask me to be one among the others, Do not oblige me to remain silent and to hide who I am. Do not ask normality of me, Dare an...

Because He is the One

They say that when you meet the One you feel it, deep inside of you, something tingles. You try to suffocate  it because there is no way you can be right, after all the times you have been wrong. And certainly he is not the One. He can't be, he will try to escape, from you, from commitment, from intimacy, from proximity. They say that there is a moment, in everyone's life, when you know that you need to fight. And fight harder for a love, or something really similar to love, that is slipping away, that is not blossoming as it should. What happens, when do you know when is the right time to start fighting? Perhaps when do you feel that he is the One? Or when is it that you let it go instead and accept that it is over? They say that the more you grow up the more you learn to know what you like and what you will never like. They say that at some point you are bound to find people who seems to be the right ones and are not, just because of the circumstances. So...

Millennium Bridge

Mid Afternoon, with the Millennium Bridge embraced by such a weird sun, too powerful to be London, too bright. One never gets to appreciate how big is the bridge until one sees the people walking down it. Stories passing by. So humble. And suddenly I remember that night when I called him because some romantic musician was playing 'Let it be' on the bridge. And those lights...oh those lights on the Millennium bridge that night. In my eyes. Trapped in my heart. And I remember how he was touched by this gesture. One of my usual silly romantic gestures. I sit on some stone stairs which lead directly to the water of the Thames. Directly in the river. Dirty waters but smelling of summer, today, kissed by the sun, moved by the implacable wind. I stare at a couple sitting a bit before me. She is fat, he is bold., they kiss and they seem in love. They share the food. They probably found that compromise which allows every man and woman in love to accept the beloved one without getting ne...
