Afecțiunea arborilor

They descend not wearing velvet robes

stitched from honest stars,

but garments woven

from borrowed halos,

perfumed with white lilies

that never knew their roots.

They speak of stillness

as though silence were a temple;

of gentleness

as though mercy were a language

their sweetened tongues remembered.

They sell the purest serenity

like merchants beneath eclipses,

placing peace

upon polished altars,

asking only

for another soul to kneel.

Do not mistake

the absence of thunder

for the absence of venom.

Some serpents

have learned

to hiss between prayers.

Some abysses

have memorized

the vocabulary of light.

Beneath their gardens

grow neither jasmine nor magnolia

only moonlit pitcher plants,

their chalices open,

sweet with impossible nectar,

waiting for exhausted butterflies

who mistook hunger

for kindness.

There,

the blossoms bloom inward.

Petals become sharp teeth.

Fragrance becomes slow-wave sleep.

Roots become shackles,

coiling around ankles

too hopeful

to question beauty.

They preach stoicism,

yet harvest every trembling heart.

They praise compassion,

yet count mercy

only when it is bleeding.

They glorify forgiveness,

because forgiven wounds

are easier to reopen.

I have seen them—

keepers of immaculate orchards,

watering white roses

with borrowed sunlight,

while beneath the soil

countless sunflower corpses

lie hollow,

their gold devoured

to adorn another mask.

They call themselves shepherds.

Yet wolves have always known

how to imitate

the patience of snowfall.

The oldest predator

is not rage,

it is tenderness

performed

without a soul behind it.

In the deepest caverns,

where no dawn enters,

the ancient serpents

shed not their skin,

but their faces.

Each new smile

another immaculate prophecy.

Each embrace

another silent eclipse.

And those

who truly carry light

never ask

to be worshipped.

They bloom quietly,

like wild chamomile

between forgotten stones,

asking nothing

except stillness.

For real gardens

never hunger

for the sunflowers

that seek shelter.

Only carnivorous flowers

measure love

by what remains

after the petals

have disappeared.

So when they speak

of peace,

look beneath their roots.

When they preach

stillness,

listen for the bones

buried beneath the moss.

And when they promise

to save your sugared soul,

watch,

whether their shadows

lean toward your light,

or away from it.

For the oldest false prophet

was never the loudest.

He whispered

like rain upon marble,

held out

a blossom without scent,

and smiled

while somewhere,

far beneath the earth,

the abyss

opened its mouth

like a flower trap.

I am just a cub,

Alone in a garden of flowers.

And as much as I delight in being seen by others,

Ilong, with all my being, to finally know myself.

As the world pauses to take a breath,

I press forward with quiet courage.

Freedom unfurls its petals within me,

Opening in this very moment.

So I take the leap of faith, and jump.

At the beginning of that journey,

The garden feels as though it tears my flesh apart

A disturbingly pleasant sensation,

For I have walked among these realms before,

Before I even knew how to shape sound with my voice.

Without rushing,

Without making the water tremble,

The conscious mind gives way,

Leaving space for the adventure to blossom.

So it begins.

The traveler's portal opens its radiant chest,

And the cub passes through.

From that realm of truth, I drift back in time,

Peering through binoculars at ancient predators,

Studying their movements,

Tracing them like vines across memory.

Once, the creatures noticed my gaze

And though they attacked,

I escaped With only a scratch on my paw,

A scar like a thorn's kiss.

I return to the present garden,

But the traveler aches for more.

And so, it begins again.

The next realm blooms in Atlantis.

The cub now breathes beneath sapphire waters,

Transformed into a creature of the deep,

A flower of the ocean's secret garden.

I drift among coral columns and temple ruins,

Their stories flowing into me

Like nectar through a stem.

My touch gathers their forgotten whispers,

Petal by petal, memory by memory.

At last, the fuel of wonder fades,

And the traveler must return.

The garden door calls softly,

Its blossoms swaying in welcome.

I leap once more,

And with gratitude,

reality gathers me gently

Back into its fragrant arms.

Simt a iernii rece gheață,

Șoptindu-mi vag și cu dulceață

Cum mă-ndeamnă să visez

Și-un ultim portret să-i pictez.

Precum un sacru jurământ,

Îi aud vocea sus, în vânt,

Și, după multe lupte crunte,

Eu pic lat pe-acel lugubru munte.

Stau, ascult și bag de seamă:

Geru-mi cântă cea din urmă gamă.

Fără vlagă, treptat devin greoi

Și-ntrezăresc priviri de moroi.

Oare îmi joacă mintea feste?

Sau au primit și ei de veste

Că-n aceste ceasuri de tortură

Cu greu mă zbat la ultima pictură?

E ger, și albul mă completează,

În ochi, marea ceață se instalează.

Cu-n gest final, cam dureros,

Închei acest portret tăios.

Time has passed fast,

Yet it kept me awake

Constantly living that moment,

That spark of eternity,

That ray of glowing sunshine,

Luminous and delightful as the bluebell

Photographed by a pair of big, earthy eyes,

Kept alive on the surface of my retina,

Along neuronal pathways,

Planted like a sunflower seed

Deep inside my consciousness,

Flourishing and thriving,

Sweet as a lavender mousse.

So if the memory of our first encounter

Is delicate as a jasmine flower,

Or mesmerising as a sunset hibiscus,

You, my beloved, are the Rose of Venus

As Aphrodite dances around Gaia,

Leaving traces of red jasper petals,

Keeping us on the path to greater love-

So do you.

As the pure ones walk through the Garden of Eden,

Or as Iris brings the majestic rainbow

As a messenger of the gods,

Growing straight along its path to wisdom,

Bringing strength and boldness

To those who are blessed enough to see

So do you.

Cruel Cronos engraved me early,

not with gentleness,

but by hands of shadows

who mistook my springtime figure

for silence,

who thought my tears were seeds easily buried.

I was a sanctuary of lilies,

crushed before the bloom,

a jasmine bruised by shadows,

an innocent violet forced into stone.

Their voices were storms,

their laughter-chains of iron,

and I, too petite to fight,

learned the language of fear.

Yet within me, a sunflower spark

refusing to give up its soul,

rooted itself deeper,

drinking light even from darkness,

whispering: you are more than their hands,

you are more than their cruelty.

So I rose, piece by piece,

a wounded Rose of Venus,

crowned not by shame,

but by the fire of endurance.

Where they carved burning scars,

I carved flourishing constellations.

Where they plucked petals,

I grew wings of lavender and flame.

Now my voice is the garden restored:

not silent,

not broken,

but alive

a testament that innocence stolen

is not innocence lost,

that even from the deepest, darkest wound,

a sunflower can rise

and teach the world

what it means

to see, to feel,

and yet not become a shadow itself.

I see myself through your onyx-moon eyes,

reflecting lifetimes beneath their dark, still surface.

I hear echoes of my past self in your voice,

soft as falling petals

a resonance of storms I once weathered.

I have walked nearly the same sacred path

though you move swifter than the wind,

speak with the thunderclap of Athena's shield,

and shine brighter than Apollo's first light.

Once, a quiet child,

afraid of the voices of angry birds,

haunted by monsters who wore mortal skin,

now stands like a mountain in stormlight

shaking stone, breaking iron,

unfolding wings carved from suffering.

Power rests within your heart.

You just have to set yourself free

and rise above your painful ashes

as the phoenix is always reminding us:

even darkness serves the bloom.

And with glory and grace,

it rises from the ugliest hell

a constellation redrawn across the sky

for others to witness and remember:

the girl once silenced

is now myth,

is now sovereign.

That pure soul, once wingless,

wove galaxies with trembling hands,

built a world from garden bones

and broken lullabies.

A kingdom rooted in empathy

and crowned with wild roses.

Here, laughter rings like chapel bells.

Here, loyalty is the highest spell.

And respect towers like golden pillars,

engraved with the names of those who dared to become whole.

No damsels here

only queens of the flame,

warrior-poets in velvet armor,

keepers of sacred fire and gentle law.

This is not just a dream.

It is a place to call home.

Дай мне, таблетку от боли,

Чтобы уплыл туда с кораблями.

Чтобы забыл эти пресные роли,

Что безотказно играл я годами.

Дай мне таблетку от счастья,

Я ведь всегда был им полон.

Я никогда не резал запястья,

и никогда не прыгал из окон.

Află-mă-n rime și clădește-mi cuvânt,
Sădește-mă-n soare, să te curăț de patimi.
Acoperă-mi trupul cu negru pământ,
Risipește-mă-n râul acesta de lacrimi...

Fii umbră, lumină, fii fulger, furtună,
Ridică-mi o stavilă cu propriul tău trup.
Să mă pierd, la final, în lumea asta nebună,
De mine și toate aș vrea să mă rup...

Am ars pătimaș în zadar, cu iubire în glas,
Am căzut iar și iar, ca din nou să mă-înalț.
Pe tine, în urmă-mi, am ales să te las,
Căci doar tu ești pasul pe care-l descalț...

Și fiindcă afară e toamnă, e frig, și-i târziu,
Te uită la dansul de frunze risipite în vânt.
Și-amintește-ți atunci când n-am să mai fiu,
Că-n rime mă afli, clădit în cuvânt...

Mi am uitat trupul in groapa marianelor

De omenire inca neexploatata

In drumul spre Everest

Sub un brad argintiu ca sa gasesc

Amabitia mea nemaritata

Dar care inca asteapta a sosi

Speranta dulce spectatoare

In valurile oceanului intunecat

Fara a da vreo scapare

Bustului meu decapitat

De ura celor ce rostesc

Cuvinte cu sageti de foc 

Inspre apa protectoare

Nu aveam sa le dejoc

Nu mi permit sa ragusesc

Cuvinte aromate drept rasplata

Hrana rechinilor ce pandesc

Slabirea trairilor firesti

Plecand fara a lasa vreo pata

Sperantei mele,naufragiata

C-un râset cald aduci în inimi foc,
surâsul tău o lume ține-n loc
și ceru-ntreg e-n ochii tăi căprui
când tu iubirii zâmbet doar îi spui.

Sclipiri de-argint sub pleoape-s vii,
născute-n vise fără chiar să știi,
în albe nopți aș vrea să-ți fur
săruturi mii și mii iubiri să-ți jur.

În părul tău etern aș vrea să pun
mănunchi de clipe ce mereu apun
și alte clipe ce din timp culeg
să-ți fie-n plete dorul ce îl leg.

Din șoapta gurii mele-n zori de zi
un farmec de viori să pot trezi,
răspunsul dulce-al primei îndoieli
din vorbe reci ce nu au rânduieli.

Iubiri trecute ce mi-au stat în drum
fuioare curg ca umbrele de fum,
te vreau, te-aștept, îți sunt sortit
căci ochii tăi căprui au înverzit.

După eoni

pe-o planetă

sub un soare

martoră

o floare

E-adevărat, eu am știut dintotdeauna

că războaiele se poartă cu emoții, nu cu arme,

dar n-am bănuit că-n mine va izbucni furtuna

când pașii tăi se vor opri atât de aproape.

Știu că m-am ascuns, deși n-aș fi vrut,

sub umbra ciudată a gândurilor mele;

iar când te-am zărit, m-am stins în tăcere,

pierdut în marea de emoții, doar eu și cu ele.

Și totuși, din colțul fugar al ochilor mei,

te-am privit ca pe-o minune.

erai acolo… atât de frumoasă

și de neatins, întreaga mea lume.

Am așteptat o eternitate să te văd,

și dorul mi s-a scris în fiecare apus;

iar când ai fost aproape, în inima mea

s-au aprins noi galaxii, te-am simțit… nespus.

Eu sper să știi că, deși n-am putut să te privesc,

Mai adânc decât lumina însăși, te-am văzut,

Mi-ai lipsit, nici nu știi

cât de mult… cât de mult!
