about a boy

“and one by one the nights between our separated cities
are joined to the night that unites us”

― pablo neruda

the boy

the boy

for all those who, today, are separated from those they love

and

for this boy, in particular

pain and anger do not last for ever

strength, hope, can be found in surprising places

the thing

is to do

the right

thing

and for the boy

in the photo

know you are loved and

always will be

(the boy, grote markt, brussel)
