Aug 29, 2004 Closing my eyes for a few moments, I can feel everything that happened in my life. I see again everything I saw, once, in front of my eyes. I live again all the moments of my life. I move again like I moved once, wild and free, with no limit but myself. I can yet touch the world where I, once, lived. I can even smell my long lost freedom. My mind still tortures me with the visions of the world that stayed behind when I was taken to the darkness and to never-ending pain. When I close my eyes, I can reach to the Universe of the times when everything was possible. I walk, once again, trough the dreams of my childhood, through the age of innocence, when I believed I had the talent to touch the world in its deepest feelings. But, then, I open my eyes and I find myself blind, because of the river of the tears that I once cried. I want to move, but I find myself chained to the dreams I have never lived, because the world broke my wings when I was trying to learn to fly. I want to return to the innocence I lived, but the burning, everlasting hate inside my heart shows me that the innocence is dead, drowned in the middle of an ocean of fear and despair. My soul tells me that I should give up, leave the prison that I built inside myself and try to find in the valley of the shadow of death the peace I never found in the human world. My heart cries for his final rest, so he can, finally, heal the wounds of his everlasting pain. My soul claims for her final destination, for the deliverance from all her suffering and eternal agony. But, still, I go on believing that, one day, the world will restore my freedom and, once again, I close my eyes and see the magic of that fallen dream called FREEDOM, which I've lost long ago... ------------ About the author Carla Sofia Lopes Ribeiro: I am a young writer from Portugal.
