Pain and pleasure occur in consciousness and exist only there

… as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul …
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
And she’s buying the stairway to heaven
– Led Zeppelin – Stairway to heaven

Rising from the past, my shadow
Is running in silence to meet me.

As the future ripens in the past,
so the past rots in the future –
a terrible festival of dead leaves.
– Anna Akhmatova –

With her enchanting songs, her rare beauty, and clever tricks, this wild ‘wanderess’ ensnared my soul like a gypsy-thief, and led me foolish and blind to where you find me now. The first time I saw her, fires were alight. It was a spicy night in Barcelona. The air was fragrant and free.
– Roman Payne -The Wanderess
Ph : Alexi Lubomirski

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después …

Laura Fygi – Besame Mucho

But I could tell thee of other things, Inglés, and do not doubt what thou simply cannot see nor cannot hear. Thou canst not hear what a dog hears. Nor canst thou smell what a dog smells. But already thou hast experienced a little of what can happen to man.
– Ernest Hemingway – For Whom the Bell Tolls
