Quadri della vita
dreams the world dreams
The music was so light and airy and playful. Notes seemed to dance on air like twinkling stars, leading her on through the half-lit streets, drawing her close. Her head was spinning, her feet seemingly moving of their own accord bringing her ever closer to the source of music. The musical euphoria was dizzying, intoxicating and then... the lightness vanished swept away by a gust of icy wind, the joy gave way to sadness so profound it physically hurt her.
She stopped.
There it was. The last bridge before the source of music was revealed to her. Chills crept over her skin like ants made of ice as the music became downright menacing.
Will you believe illusions or will you trust your heart?” This voice was her torment.
What if it lies?”

He stared, transfixed, at the creatures with perfectly blank faces and couldn’t make sense of what was going on around him. It was a strange theater from his most paranoid thoughts that had somehow bled into his reality. For he was awake.
An echo of laughter rang in his ears. “Are you really?” soft hiss spread inside his head.
This was reality.
Laughter again. “Or is it?” the voice in his head sounded curious.

There and yet in some other dimension of time and space. Together yet galaxies apart standing only a step apart. The rule of “three and done” had long turned into “three million and verging on doormat”. Habit was a drug that had nothing to do with love. The solution was clear even when ignored at a point blank range. “Don’t let the winter of your heart separate us before we find each other.” Those were your words that brought me back to life...

It was a summer’s night and we were dancing. The jasmine was in full bloom, white as the moon shining above us, and music was equally intoxicating, or so we thought lost in each other’s eyes. Mirrors all around us told us of the future we deemed to be a dream. And still we danced till the morning kissed the sky blushing hues of pink. We were too close to the edge and the fall from it after a clumsy stumble separated us for many lifetimes. Will we ever find each other in this one to dance on a summer’s night of jasmine in full bloom again?

“I don’t want to hide,” she said without even realizing it.
He looked up at her.
I don’t want to hide anymore.”
He rose from the ground.
I don’t want to hide. I’m tired of the dark. It’s lonely and exhausting there.”
He walked over to her.
I don’t want to hide and pretend anymore.”
There was light in his eyes as he looked at her intently, then wrapped his arms around her.

“You think there’s only one reality?” he asked, incredulous. “Look around you. Really look. Open your mind and your senses to actually see what’s around you.” He was about to say more but waved his hand dismissing whatever thought had crossed his mind.
What? You think I can’t do that?”
“Honestly? I don’t think you can. I know you can’t. You’re too tied up in your dogmas.”
“I’m not!” she bristled. Was he right? Was she such a slave to somebody else’s beliefs?
Suddenly he leaned close, his lips almost brushing against her ear as he said, “Come undone and realize magic is real.”

The brilliant, intoxicating positive energy you feel on every step during the carnevale is perhaps the key element that made me fall in love with this event. I hate crowds. I avoid them at all costs. Always. But this crowd is different and I want to be part of its scintillating, dizzying energy. Again. And again. And again. And again...

“Did you mess up the days again?”
“Might have mixed up years this time around,” came a snarky remark from someone in the shadows. |
Let’s face it, once you get a taste of the potion named Carnevale di Venezia you become an addict for life and cannot wait to dive back into this world of dreams. And so as I wait for the day of my return to the beautiful madness let’s see what caught my eye last year.

“So you’re telling me she’s coming back?”
“Uh-huh.”
“When?”
“How the hell am I supposed to know? I’m more concerned about the how aspect of said matter.”
She didn’t see them through the layers of time and space, but she heard them loud and clear. Worried, weren’t they? Good. A lazy Cheshire cat smile curved her lips. She couldn’t wait to step onto those cobblestones again...

“Will you join me?” the question is on repeat in my head, driving me manic, making me fidgety. No sign of the calm I foolishly believe to possess. I dare not glance at the clock. There are two things I cannot get out of my mind - your smile and this infinitely torturous question - will you join me? Will you?

This Monday is getting on my last nerve, so no story for you today, dear friends. Just a view that never fails to make me smile. In color. Yes, it’s that kind of Monday.

Everything was doubled. Every single thing. Every single person. Every layer of every dimension. There was no way of telling what was true and what was just a glitch in time, a figment of someone’s - her own? - imagination. The world was turning in a slow, lazy, dizzying ellipse around her as though she was it’s axis. She looked at the crumpled photograph in her hand and then at the scene in front of her. “And why did I have the audacity to believe this time would be different?” tears were burning behind her eyes as she turned to leave. “Always remember us this way...”
The voice - that voice - made her turn around...
