and finally love
painture by laurentiu zloteanu
inspired by a poem written by elena murgoci
one day,
as I was playing in a forest,
I got lost in the fog between the trees.I ran and screamed,
hitting my face against the sharp branches,
terrified of suddenly finding myself
in unfamiliar depths.as I grew tired, I slowed down
listening intensely
(they must be looking for me
they must know by now.)the hours went by and I found no refuge
other than the comfort of my own arms around me.gradually,
a sense of gentleness came over me …
then gratefulness came by to say hello;
then patience,
quietude
and finally
love
as bright as a thousand suns
bursting out of my chest,
my eyes,
my mouth.
