i sit in the dimly lit room in a tiny corner curled up away from the fire
suddenly the earth rips open, my chest feels heavy and i am crushed by a weight i cannot see
something i can't perceive just happened.
i couldn't say wether it was at the bottom of my soul or at the very border of the world
something happened i feel shaken by an earthquake
my eyes dart away and tears gather like so many pearls ready to break at the slightest sound
silence weighs me down and lifts me up at once,

there is something heavy on my heart
