“There is truth in stories,” said Arthur. “There is truth in one of your paintings, boy or in a sunset or a couplet from Homer. Fiction is truth, even if it is not a fact. If you believe only in facts and forget stories, your brain will live, but your heart will die.”

“The moment I saw a dream of forever,
Your betrayal woke me up.
The moment I felt a touch of muse,
Your lies choke me up.
The moment I heard a tune of serenity,
Your abandonment tore me up.”

“Sometimes we feel lonely,
Like another brick
Another wall
Like no one needs you at all.
Life isn't supposed to be like that,
Just think for a while;
You’re the brick the wall needs,
You're a masterpiece.
Open your eyes,
And you'll see
All the love around you;
It was all the time beside you,
You were too blind to realize
Don´t you?”
― Muse Buzz

“On my canvas of life, you bring colors of love and joy,
Just like in winters,
The setting sun brings beams of red and purple to the sky.”

“In those eyes, you’ll see what I see,
There’s so much calmness,
There’s so much vastness,
There’s so much mess,
There’s so much clarity,
I find myself roaming around,
I find myself losing,
Yet those eyes never look away,
I gaze and gaze at ease,
Lost in their mesmerizing tease.”
