Joyce Akesson > Quotes

“There is a talent in finding
the right information at the right time,
a happiness in pleasing someone else.

Love is the best teacher in this journey.
It is simple:
you take the initiative and throw the dice.
/The Invitation”
― Joyce Akesson

“I fear, I despair,
I die and I live again through my hope.

How many times have I not been dead
and resuscitated?

They are all here around me,
men, jinns,
but I do not care!

If they think they can forbid me from seeing you:
I shall come to you anyway!”
― Joyce Akesson, Majnun Leyla: Poems about Passion

“It's a parallel world.
It's a gothic forest.
It's a bluish valley.
It's a deep gorge.

It's a déjà vu.
It's a sleeping town.
It's an old neighborhood.
It's a familiar house.

You go up the stairs of your future.
You discover the source of your past.
Your present is hidden behind a secret door.
Your space is reflected in the windows.

You find a chess game in the attic.
The formula of your happiness is decrypted.
A voice whispers your name:
you recreate your identity.”
― Joyce Akesson, Love's Thrilling Dimensions
