“When I first met you
A thousand songs ago
I didn't know that you were
So many sunrises away.

(from the book "The Void that Reflects Your Beauty")”
― Monica Laura Rapeanu

“someone was singing
and he was alone.
for us, you wrote yourself
in small letters
so we wouldn’t know.

from the bitterness of blood,
from the nights of the eagles,
that music began,
but we couldn’t hear it.

the grapes are calling
their wine,
the stranger. (...)”
― Monica Laura Rapeanu, Orbul de la Cină

“Tears turned into colors before being wept,
An innocent rain in wild growth,
Speaking a language
That you'll understand someday, late.”
― Monica Laura Rapeanu, The Void That Reflects Your Beauty

“I am the void
That reflects your beauty,
Pure like a never-written poem.”
― Monica Laura Râpeanu, The Void That Reflects Your Beauty
