Okay, so, I think this is a good place to start.
That picture shows a particular place in Camden Market, London. For whatever reason it is my favorite, whenever I’m there I get calm and just enjoy it (even though the market is always busy and not particular clean…)
Anyway.
After I went to London for the first time (in 2007, two days with my ex-boyfriend/best friend) I had a dream where I was lying on a bench at that particular spot (just prettier) and someone was behind me, holding me close, loving me.
Well. It was one of the most peaceful dreams I ever had and I still remember it so I wrote a poem about it right after. This is it:
A beloved voice
whispering in my ear.
A kiss, so sweet.
I want to feel it
all my life.
Warmth, strength, happiness.
Does it have to end?
I want to scream it out
Want to tell it everyone.
I want to keep it as a secret
My dark, lovely secret.
Do I have to ask
for forgiveness?
Whom do I have to ask?
After all…
It was just a dream
