Marissa.

A true friend is not something you find every day. You won't notice it how true that friend might be. But with time and patience and a lot of personal/mutual setbacks you become close.

When I met Marissa we weren't the best friends in the world. She had her standards and I had mine. We had a mutual friend that made us ''acquaintances'' but close, nah.

The unfortuned twist of life made us ''friends''. Our mutual friend moved away and our sorrow was big. We cried together in silence. Both of us never spoke really out loud about it but both of us knew. Our friendship was hectic and didn't go smooth, like you would expect. No, both of us had a common characteristic quality. We were both stubborn.

We did not fight openly. We just didn't talk.

A year later I found myself in a broken life. Missing what she and I were. I was ashamed of my past behaviour. A bit too proud to make a step but I did. She had forgiven me and I would forgive hers (always).

Sometimes in life you will meet some one that doesn't seem to be the person you can always count on but you will never know untill you give them a chance.

I love Marissa. In our own parallel world. Our common weirdness and our need to grow and to explore.

we are strange. I like us.

Maybe they knew everything.

De herfst is aangebroken. Wat zal ik zeggen? Dat de herfst een donker seizoen is? Dat de herfst mooi is of juist niet? Niet zo donker als de winter!

Het is regenachtig en de temperatuur daalt. Ik verlang naar de zomer.

Friends & lovers.
Create anger and you will find yourself, caged.
Create peace and you create space where you can love each other.
Create a friendship so you can create love.
Love.

You've set the standard for my future

Home is where ever with you


Al beloop ik alle straten.
Bezoek ik elke stad.
Kom ik iedereen tegen en kruisen zij mijn paden.
Loop ik in zeven sloten tegelijk.
Thuis is waar jij bent.
