SHINE FOREVER

     

     After the long walk in the shadows, the light begins to shine again. Almost three years after your departure, my brother, you keep shining in my mind. You’ll always be remembered and loved.
     I remember one of the first bands of the 70s that we both loved – Pink Floyd. Below goes the lyrics of “Shine On You Crazy Diamond”… but it could also be “Wish You Were Here”… you playing the guitar and I singing and shivering… It’s hard to know beforehand what we don’t know yet… I wish you were here… You are here!
     The photographs are from the series “Playing With Light”; a part of them are pictures of Christmas lights… Christmas also came back… The last picture is by David Kowalski (shotsfiredimagedown), a magnificent creator and visionary.

SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
Shine on you crazy diamond

You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze
Come on, you target for faraway laughter
Come on, you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night and exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond

Well, you wore out your welcome with random precision
Rode on the steel breeze
Come on, you raver, you seer of visions
Come on, you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine

Pink Floyd
