Very Strange and Very Familiar

All the world was known and I wasn't familiar. Now I am just one of them...

Me at Her Wedding

While these two people were sharing their secrets, their most special feelings, their memories through a few seconds of glimpses, I was between them. I saw, I felt deeply everything they went through. I whispered into my love's ear: "It could have been you..."

At Her Wedding

She was walking through the aisle of the church with her newly-married husband. With a big smile on her face, she was greeting the guests...All familiar faces; friends, family and relatives were looking at her admiringly. There was only one person looking at her differently and another, that was me, observantly. While she was passing through the crowd, she caught a glimpse of him. She wasn't sure what she saw, she looked at him again. There he was, a man whom she loved once.

Nothingness

She never understood what he tried to say. In the middle of nothingness how could he try to mean something? How?

She

It was a trip to find beauties, but she was constantly greeted by poverty, sadness and hopelessness. The day brought nothing to these lost souls. The day brought a lot to her. For them each day was a day of fight, a day to survive. For her each day was to enjoy. Grasping her some-thousand Euro worth camera firmly in her hands, she saw a little boy smiling at her. Thousands of miles, she thought. No landscape, no monument, nothing was worth this much. Her heart ached and later her camera's shutter release was heard.

He and Me

He was the only person who knew who I was, but he was far, far away. I ran to catch up with time, I ran to catch up with him. I failed. Time continued to fly and I was blinded.
When I finally began to see, he was left behind and I was already someone else.
