It used to be that when you order for coffee or tea, you order for just that, coffee or tea. And it takes less than thirty seconds to do so. Now, when you order for coffee or tea, you are asked by the smiling girl behind the counter, tall or short? hot or cold? what flavour? latte? cinnamon? pearls or jello? Please choose from our selection of five-hundred add-ons. It now takes thirty minutes for you to order for coffee or tea. There are a thousand and one choices for coffee and an equal number for tea. The queue behind us is getting longer and we were so stumped by the selection that we just closed our eyes and pointed at the board. The original ice blended mocha and hot Japanese cherry flavoured green tea were our choices. Whew! That was hard. Next time I’ll order for water. Bottled, tap, mineral, distilled, still or sparkling? Oh crap.

Mais qui est ce qui m’a dit que toujours tu m’aimais? Je ne me souviens plus c’était tard dans la nuit, J’entend encore la voix, mais je ne vois plus les traits “Il vous aime, c’est secret, lui dites pas que j’vous l’ai dit” Tu vois quelqu’un m’a dit… Que tu m’aimais encore, C’est quelqu’un qui m’a dit que tu m’aimais encore. Serais ce possible alors ?

radio, live transmission. listen to the silence, let it ring on. eyes, dark grey lenses frightened of the sun. we would have a fine time living in the night, left to blind destruction, waiting for our sight. and we would go on as though nothing was wrong. and hide from these days we remained all alone. staying in the same place, just staying out the time. touching from a distance, further all the time. dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio. well i could call out when the going gets tough. the things that we’ve learnt are no longer enough. no language, just sound, that’s all we need know, to synchronise love to the beat of the show. and we could dance. dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio. - ian curtis

Isn’t it amazing how a person who was once just a stranger, suddenly meant the world to you?

The more you try to simplify things the more you complicate them. You create rules, build walls, push people away, lie to yourself and ignore true feelings. That is not simplifying things.

charity

wrapped in a blanket

left to my devices to

think about what was said

apologies? what for?

not your fault to

jest and laugh at me

not your fault to

banish me from your horizon

I am nothing

     a fool

     an animal

     dust

thank you for your precious time

unwisely spent on me

     what happiness

for me to receive your charity.

how i wish you could see the potential, the potential of you and me. it’s like a book elegantly bound but in a language that you can’t read, just yet… there are days when outside your window i see my reflection as i slowly pass. and i long for this mirrored perspective that we’ll be lovers, lovers at last… you reject my advances and desperate pleas. i won’t let you let me down so easily… you gotta spend some time, love. you gotta spend some time with me and i know that you’ll find, love, i will possess your heart.
