Close your eyes

January 11, 2017January 10, 2017 / simonsalento / Leave a comment

Close your eyes and the stars spiral to their own music, the sky the softest black. Touch.

Pitchblack night

April 22, 2016March 28, 2017 / simonsalento / Leave a comment

Pitchblack night, no stars. Hold my hand, I’ll stop you from falling – then I fell. Two lying in the mud, crying laughing.

We shall meet again

We shall meet again when stars split the skies and melt into our eyes.

The longest night

December 21, 2013 / simonsalento / Leave a comment

The longest night. Clouds covering thin moon. Few cold stars silver in the black surrounding sky. Golden eyes blink slowly, twice.
