Witness
Mas La Plana, Santa Maria d'Oló (Barcelona, Spain), July 2017 Like an ethereal witness from a privileged vantage point I gaze at the deep sadness which welcomes me into its warm iciness. Sharing my solitude with the tantrums of the child I once was, living the responsibility of freeing the way for the ones who will come behind, sailing on an unknown sea of tears adrift alone. Bottling up once again emotions and feelings, happiness and sadness, pain and pleasure, mercy and wrath, ego and Soul. Unaffected, the witness listens to the timeless questions which are tormenting my heart: How can the endless murmur be silenced which clouds the horizon, which distances the center you sought, the Peace which brightens your senses? How can the inner voices be deafened, memories of yearnings which could have been, longings of perfect futures which stayed remote? How can the noise be silenced of everything that hurt us? How can the omnipresent buzz be quiet
