 He was standing alone on a road, as the night was covering the city, in a quest for the signs that would guide him to his future paths. Mist was rising beyond the void. He could see everything vanishing in the black and white dream of a stuffy atmosphere. He believed he was a stranger in an already known world, fearing that the sky’s tears would have drawn him. Lost for years in a past of wounded hearts and visions for a better morrow, he had been struggling in vain with no result. The city was fast asleep and only the smoke rising above the chimneys could embellish his soul.

He walked to an old train station that was not in service anymore. Only his loneliness could be heard, whistling a song as she emerged to greet him with a smile. She touched his face and then she vanished beyond the rusty rails. Memories were the only piece of her left to remember. Her smile and the anticipation of her arrival flooded him so joyfully that each time he realized how much she loved him. It was a rainy winter morning when the gleam of her eyes settled down, when her body was found on the rails.

​

  She was staring the sky with such absorbed eyes, waiting for the blue color to dive like a bird and consume her. Just a breath brought her closer to the hurting reality, struggling with her dark thoughts. She wanted to walk, to forget the grieving of the past years. The bridge was so deserted, so desolate that she cried for the loss. He could never had seen her but his eyes was also such like a heaven for her that she chosen to stay out of his vision not to hurt him with her presence. She was scared of the dark but it was the only way to see him wandering like a shadow through the bloody memories of her mind. The Sun would rise soon and she was afraid of loosing him forever. She run to the nearby train rails giving the down, this way, a warm embrace to be lost for love.

​

  A world so different yet so unchanged. Recollections like weaved images on a spider’s web, lurking for years to wrap the next victim and offer a new sacrifice in the mind’s simplicity. One moment, she chose to change everything with only companion the night who, dressed in white, awaits to lead humanity to different places.
