I've been wanting to share with you, some of the lines that i've been writing... This is a dream Helena has in the story. Enjoy!
"I closed my eyes and left the room to another place…
A high terrace where my dream took place.
Life has been good to me,
new opportunity is knocking
and my door was always open
for this to happen all I have to do is jump
Far in the horizon
I see the green pastures
but looking down for short seconds while with my eyes open
feels like standing at the top of the Empire States building
Such a sight that your eyes hurt
feels the high of 15 cups of coffee in 2 hours
Sweat runs down the back of my neck
my feet feel cold with the sweet street air
hands sweating in panic, frantic
the sweet breeze blows my hair back
makes me feel like anything is possible
even a safe landing 300 feet down
I touch my back hoping for a miracle
for wings that have never been there
I wrap my toes in the cold stone surface of the building
measuring how attach they are if it's slippery
after all I don't know how I got there on the first place
I wonder again and again
how easy would be to detach my mind
from this uneasy feeling of free falling
So I opened my eyes wide again
ready to take the final decision
let go my joined hands to my sides
arms spread out in the wind
mind concentrated on green pastures
my heart starts beating so hard I can barely hear anything else
and take a step off the terrace..."
