My melting rays...


Tu me manques

Yes. As absurd as it is and I know you’re a man of logic...
I miss you… I do…
I feel a little empty. Just a little. How strange is that?.. How strange those small moments of happiness were anyway?
The ultimate deception is to deceive oneself. But let’s not be so radical.
Let’s call ourselves romantics. Living in a perfect world. That we created so cunningly to swindle our vain existence into moments of fantasy. Just a little.
Let’s live yet another love affair built on dreams alone.
Let’s borrow from the sun its possessive embrace to the earth and live an elaborate myth of possessing each other.
Let’s borrow from the moon’s stories of cuddling with the oceans and fake waves and waves of love and devotion.
Let’s be jealous of the stars flirting with the night and shine a light that doesn’t fade but for moments of drunkenness with nothing but life…
Let’s fall in love,
Just a little…

Was it you, with the sign today at the press conference (Blair/Saniora) in Beirut today, Mirvat? :)

Unknown said...

Lirun will do.. and thanks :)

andrey, now you really made me laugh :) you're so cute!
no it wasn't me.. i wish i was there.. it was so many lebanese who share the same disgust at blair (and you know who) right now. but diplomacy is diplomacy, the country can't stop talking to everybody right? except for israel of course and as far as blair's hopes go... wishful thinking!
