Just a Thought

A collection of short stories

We Ride,
Everyday through our lives,
We ride,
Everyday at di!erent speed.
Its always me and you,
But its never us,
Two worlds apart,
Our souls now too far.
We ride,
Everyday on di!erent roads,
We ride,
Everyday as if it was the last.

Ive learn to love for you,
Ive been down for you,
But Ive always stood,
To feel the truth.
We ride,
Everyday and every night,
We ride,
Looking at the stars.
I will never let you go,
I will never let you down,
I will always look after you,
I will always love you.
We ride,
Everyday from our heart,
We ride,
We ride,
We ride.
Draw your future,
Shape the world,
Change your view,
Make it yours.
These are tools,
Give them life,
Make the pencil run,
Let it play on paper.
Just close your eyes,
And listen to your heart,
A beautiful journey awaits you,
A new day to be discovered.

This is for
you

I listen to the rain,
Its bouncing on the roof,
Its dancing in the wind,
If I close my eyes,
I can see it,
Running down on my skin,
Shaping my soul,
And then the sun,
Breaking from the clouds,
Drying the grass,
Warming up my heart,
It can only be a dream,
Seeing your arms around me,
Moving the clouds outside,

It doesnt rain anymore,
With my private sun,
Shining all around me,
I can see your gure,
A silhouette far,
Growing in the late hour,
It can only be,
A midsummer nights dream.
Breathing slowly with the sun in the morning,
Catching up with the world outside,
Hundreds of faces turning,
Looking at me stranded inside.
Look up, look at the stars,
All the small things you have,
They will lift you from the ground,
They will turn you around.
Give me shelter in your arms,
Whisper softly in my ears,
A gentle music for my head,
Let me lay my eyes upon your light.

Look up, look at the moon,
All the small things you gave me,
They will lift me from the ground,
They will turn me around.
Walking down the line,
With my eyes never loosing sight of you,
My heart is beating for two,
Im speechless and lost,
Inside your bright universe.
Its a kaleidoscope of emotions,
A twist of perfumes,
that brings me closer to your beauty,
And yet so far from your gentle gure,
Teared apart by the desire.

Whisper a word to me,
Save me from myself,
Send me a kiss,
Open my eyes.
So intensely concentrated on your world,
While the world around keep spinning,
I watch you from the other side,
I try to keep up and I run,
I run towards your safe harbor.
Theres too much noise around,
I cant see you anymore,
My hopes are gone,
My future is twisting.
You are like music through my veins,
Igniting a spark deep in my heart,
Giving me a reason to carry on.

I see your lips,
A beautiful smile,
A gentle face,
Framed by wild dark forest.
I would die for your kiss,
I would run on top of the world to get it,
A brief moment in heaven,
No more afraid of falling back on earth.
Give me your hand,
Ill give you myself,
Lets walk together,
Down this beautiful road,
Where theres no more me and you,
Where theres only us.
I walk by the avenue,
Wrapped up in my coat,
The snow is falling down,
Its dancing on my back,
My breath is so short,
Its cold here outside.
Houses are passing by,
I take a glimpse in the inside,
I saw happy families,
I saw children smiles,
I cant hear what they say,
But its music in my mind.

I had a dream

I keep walking down the road,
With a camera round my neck,
I freeze time shot by shot,
I freeze memories of strangers,
Keeping track of their faces,
Theres nobody here,
Im just talking to myself.
Which day is today,
Is so similar to yesterday,
Seasons are passing by,
So quickly Ive missed them,
I cant recall my last smile,
I cant recall my last kiss.
There are few things I know,
Something life has taught me,
Keep your head on your shoulders,
Keep a smile on your face,
Never let the shadows inside,
Never say I cant do that.

I keep walking down the road,
With a camera round my neck,
I freeze time shot by shot,
I freeze memories of strangers,
Keeping track of their faces,
Theres nobody here,
Im just talking to myself.
I see the end of the road,
Shine a light upon me,
Ive never lost my faith in you,
I always knew you were here,
Maybe you still dont know it,
But youve saved my soul.
You held my hands in your hands,
Youve whispered sweet joy,
I cannot believe to my eyes,
My senses are playing my mind,
My body feels you around here,
I cannot held you in my arms.

I keep walking down the road,
With a camera round my neck,
I freeze time shot by shot,
I freeze memories of strangers,
Keeping track of their faces,
Theres nobody here,
Im just talking to myself,
Im just talking to you.
So close and yet so far away,
I see your eyes and I loose myself,
Their green is so bright,
In the night they shine.
I want to hold you in my arms,
I want the world outside to be silent,
I want to be just you and me,
I want to hear your beating heart.
Kiss me now for all night long,
Whisper gentle words in my ears,
Tell me that everything will be alright,
Kiss me again and dont say goodbye.

Once again the screen lighted up, a new message just ar#
rived. Not the rst, even remotely the last. Just one of the
many he used to receive during the day. That sound slowly
became part of his day, a white noise in the background, a
ghost to follow at any time.
He grew so accustomed to it that sometimes he felt a vibra#
tion on his pocket even when the phone was actually silent.
He felt like that because in a way he needed those buzzing
messages. It was the best way to divide his day, to take a
break from reality and immerge himself in a parallel world.

A gentle kiss

Again and again, few words against the screen capable of
drawing a smile on his face. He felt so stupid and yet so
alive, with the hope of something almost real, driven par#
tially by his immense imagination. He caress the words as if
they were spoken, he read them twice before starting to re#
ply, trying to read underneath those lines, to see if theres
an hidden message.
He fantasizes a lot about the two, from the loneliness of his
house, that spark could be real and not just a light from his
screen. He fantasizes but hes the only one. At the other
end of the line theres just a normal girl, who has something
else in mind. Shes just a natural sweet girl, who just politely
stays in touch.

A virtual relationship thats not even remotely recognized,
it will drive him crazy sooner than later, but thats just the
way things are going around him. He cant wait to move
from digital to real, but the time seems to have suddenly
stopped. Less than a month that seems forever, kept alive
by a futile hope, brighter than the screen from where it
comes.
What is real and what is fake, the line has blurred away a
long time ago. Imagination pops out from time to time,
tries to reassure him with all the good he has in his life. But
he cant see anything but her and all the energies are there.

He patiently removed another page, the calendar is now so
thin.
Blingblingbling
At last face to face, the long awaited day is nally here. Will
he be able to speak up for his dreams, or it will go as it al#
ways does? Breathing slowly, trying to keep his pulse under
control, he goes for it not overthinking on the result.
A slap on his face or a tender kiss?
Blingblingbling
Awaken suddenly in the night, by the buzz and the light
coming from his phone. The face covered in sweat and the
hearth going like crazy. A terrible dream is still on his mind
so powerful to bring him out from his sleeping.
Thank God she has her on his side, still asleep and with a
smile on her face. He gives her a gentle kiss on the chin re#
minding him how lucky he is. Its time to switch o! the
damn phone, going back to live his wonderful real life.
