neda

it's the first time in my life that i see a person dying. i witness the actual moment when her soul leaves her body. the moment when her eyes look straight at me, then loose control. her heart keeps on pumping blood through her veins, but the vein has a hole, the body is leaking, turning the pavement red. she is gone.
that moment is just a little bit longer than the blink of an eye. and if i wanted to, i could witness it over and over again, just by hitting the play button. i stumbled upon it on facebook, a place that is about sharing private moments.

it's maybe the most private moment in a person's life. and i have no right to witness it. i don't know that person, i am not close to her, she never trusted me. and now she has no chance to not share this moment with me - and with millions of other people. i don't want that and who know's whether she wanted that.
instead she is turning into a piece of propaganda.
