Words
Dreams
Trapped in a glass cube
I just wanted...
A first and blind date
Shifting grounds
Parallel possibilities
Today and the past
Reflections
Mirrors
The biggest fear
Turtle for a living keychain


The first thing I saw
was a ray of sunlight –
warm and pleasing.
I sought to see more...

"Try harder,"
I told myself and fought
with all I had against a hard shell.
I fought –
and this was my first struggle.

And here it was –
the beautiful unknown world around me!

I felt I had yet
to get to know a lot.
I felt that I had
a lot of years ahead of me for that.
My life – new and unique...
This was the first time I felt
I was happy to be born.

The next thing I saw
were high dark shadows
with big black hands,
outstretched to me –
this was the first time I felt fear.

I was put into a huge basket
with many of us in it.
We all conjectured
what was going to happen.
This was my first time
being afraid of the future.

We were brought to a place.
It was loud there –
a lot of unknown scary sounds.
I couldn't bear to have my eyes open.
Maybe, if I could
this would have been my first time crying.

After some agonizing time
I opened my eyes when I felt water.
However, no matter how much I tried
I couldn't move in it well.
My first time suffering deception.

Another dark shadow
with an evil grin on its face.
It grabbed me in my new cage
and hung on a strange thing.
I couldn't understand
why they were all staring at me.
I couldn't understand
why I couldn't get out.
The first time of me feeling despair.

I don't know
how many days have passed,
but soon I realized
my heart,
which started beating slower,
made it difficult to make the next breath.
There was time I felt hunger,
but now I only wanted to be asleep.
Maybe... just maybe,
the next time I wake up,
will I be in a new world?
Was this my first time
getting to know
what truly a hope was?
