Spegelen (The mirror)
S: Hi. What are you doing?
G: Writing. Not really.
S: Do you want to be alone?
G: Yeah. Or no.
S: We have pizza.
G: Great. Sara, it’s short notice, but… Would you like to go home with me for the easter holidays? I’m sure it’s going to involve a lot of crying and there won’t be much to do, but…
S: Sounds perfect. Do you want a ride on my back?
G: No.
S: Did I just hear a no?
G: I’d rather hang off your back.
S: Let’s get on with it, then. Come on. One, two, three.
G: No… Ow, ow, ow. I’m choking you. Ow.
S: Shush.
S: Ok, here, here, here.
G: OK.
S: Nice.
I stand alone in rooms full of people
There are too many voices speaking at the same time
And there are too many days that merge into each other
And there are too many times I stumble over stairs or over feelings
And there are too many things I have forgotten to do or forgotten to be
And I think that I don’t really know what it takes
But I can see my stupid face
Whole and worth something
Because I live in you, I can walk down the street
With a smile in my heart, because I exist.
The air is full of words I haven’t said,
And thoughts I haven’t thought.
And I am full of faults and affectations.
But that depends on the eyes that are watching.
Whether you stumble or dance.
Whether you are full of faults
Or full of small tunnels.
You can be a whole person.
When you forget the bathroom mirror
And see yourself in the fjord and the clouds,
Until the whole blue planet,
Is the iris of someone who loves you.
And you don’t want to hate yourself,
Because then, you hate everyone.
And you don’t want to hate others,
Because then, you hate yourself.
And you want to save the world, because she is a friend
Who’s got something in her eye and can’t get it out.
G: Did you learn the whole poem by heart?
S: Yeah. And I still think you should have read it at that slam thing.
G: Yeah.
S: It reminds me a bit of…
G: You have my full attention.
S: OK. Anyway, it reminds me a bit of when I was small. I had a best friend I used to run off to. And her father was so good with poems and stuff, and he used to read, like… and there was one poem I especially liked, and it goes like this …
