The Little Mermaid
Hans Christian Andersen
“What she longed for
was never merely the shore.”
She traded her voice for a pair of legs,
yet could never trade them for a world that truly belonged to her.
Between the sea and the human world,
she loved, suffered, and remained silent.
Until, in the end,
she became foam and light in the dawn.

The Little Match Girl
Hans Christian Andersen
“Some light,
is only seen in the coldest night.”

The Emperor’s New Clothes
Hans Christian Andersen
Sometimes
there are more people who stay silent than those who lie.
What is most frightening,
is never the absurdity itself.
It is that everyone has grown used to it.
