Selected Moments

  • From: How Beautiful, The Moon

    I don’t know if I can learn not to love
    But the relief of teaching myself to forget
    Of learning not to miss
    Is overshadowed by the fear that I will

  • Fra: Månen Er Så Smuk

    Jeg ved ikke om jeg kan lære ikke at elske
    Men lettelsen ved at lære mig selv at glemme
    At lære ikke at savne
    Overskygges, af frygten for at jeg gør det

  • From: Lessons From a Life I Never Lived

    I keep trying to find myself
    Who am I
    The endless hunt to be myself
    Each time I finally learn who I am, the realization hits that I have to start over

  • Fra: Lektioner Fra Et Liv Jeg Aldrig Levede

    Prøver hele tiden at finde mig selv
    Hvem er jeg
    Den evige jagt på at være mig selv
    Hver gang jeg endelig har lært hvem jeg er, rammer erkendelsen af, at måtte starte forfra

  • From: The Easy Part is Dying

    The fear of being alone is the fear of confronting my own existential need, of not hauling my choices up for post-rationalization. The excuse of altruism is used to avoid laying my soul bare, but I need to face my soul’s mirror.
    I need it when no one else can.
    It is not enough to craft the version of me I wish to be.
    Only when I live it

  • Den Nemme Del Er At Dø

    Frygten i at være alene er frygten for mødet med mit eget eksistentielle behov, for ikke at bringe mine valg op til efterrationalisering. Altruismens undskyldning bruges for ikke at blotte min sjæl, men jeg har brug for at se mit sjælespejl.
    Brug for det, når ingen andre formår det.
    Det er ikke nok at skabe den version af mig jeg gerne vil være.
    Det er kun når jeg lever den

About Moments

M. Oceano writes Moments as short reflections on life, memory, and the origins of feeling. The Strengths of Melancholy invites open interpretation that often differs from the thought behind it; where you are in life shapes what you see in a Moment. Other collections do not include the thought behind the text. Some are clearer, others invite interpretation, and a few exist only for deep focus. The form shifts between fragments, dashes, pauses, and vivid images. The project began from a need to explore feelings that resisted ordinary words, to put them on the page and out of the body. Texts are written in Danish and published in parallel in English. Here you can read selected Moments, join the list, and later pre-order paper editions and signed copies.
