Thank You, UK!
I am one of many people who tried their luck in a new country. I am Romanian but in 2011 I chose to come in UK. I could have chosen other countries, but I chose UK for it’s tradition, opportunities, for the doors it had open for me and my soul.
As I look back now, after this short experience in my new country and second home, I am grateful for the chance I received, for the fight I could fight, for the people I met, for this extraordinary experience I made.
And it’s just the beginning.
Thank You, UK!!!

Moment
There’s only one cold moment at night
when I feel you
though I know that the reaching of my hand towards you
will not cross the eons between us.
In that cold quiet
you are here.
——————————————————————
Exista doar o clipa rece in noapte
cand te simt
desi stiu ca intinderea mainii mele catre tine
nu va strabate eonii dintre noi.
In acea tacere rece
tu esti aici.

Thought
This thought goes to all those unknown humble honest people that work very hard every single day to support their family, children, parents.
You might be unknown, but you are angels in human bodies. And your sacrifice has a simple name: love.
God bless you!
❤
Ela.
The Poet And The Pendulum
Our heart hanging, pendulum
Moving between known and strange feelings
Swan song getting lost in the distances
If this is a dream, you are my eyelid closed
If this is a story, you are my story teller.
——————————————————-
Inima noastra atarnand, pendul
Miscandu-se intre sentimente cunoscute si straine
Cantec de lebada pierzandu-se in departari
Daca acesta e un vis, tu esti pleoapa mea inchisa
Daca aceasta e o poveste, tu esti povestitorul meu.

Poets of the Fall – Diamonds for Tears
“In these days of manmade wonders we still bicker over flies
When you come seeking for forgiveness, I’ll be forced to choose my side
If I deny you what you’re searching, do I do it out of fear
Am I ruling out my reason, killing that which I hold dear
Out of my way I’m running, with an excuse just underway
Reality’s so daunting, and I’ve got no way to explain
Cos when you’re sleeping right next to me, I know you’re the one
So when I hear you calling my name, why do I turn away to run
I guess that’s why it’s raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears
In the light of recent findings, there’s no greater taint than grace
But to relinquish all our bindings, always finds us out of place
If I rested here a while more, would you hold me to your heart
If I knew what it was meant for, will I know to play my part
Out of my way I’m leaving, another excuse before I’ll stay
Reality’s applauding, I know I don’t know the right way
Cos when you’re sleeping right next to me, I know you’re the one
So when I hear you calling my name, Yeah, I know you’re the one
I guess that’s why it’s raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears
Is it a lost cause,
Can we overlook this taint
Are these the dead laws
Like a doubt eating the saint
And though I fear these shackles, like my darkness closing in
I will hold out my hands, I will hold out my hands
Cos when you’re sleeping right next to me, I know you’re the one
So when I hear you calling my name, I’ll know the good I’ve done
I guess that’s why it’s raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears”
Lost Poet
without a face
i’m your lost poet
one of a kind, without trace
dying unknown
with each moment
that falls over my soul like a stone
my only art
to paint the passion of
this torn bleeding heart
my sole message
light and love
for life is just a passage
