I'm Just a Barn Owl
I'm just a barn owl. During the day I sit high up here and stagger in a corner under the roof of the old barn. Almost no one notices that I'm here. It happens from time to time that I make a dark sound - UHU, u-hu. The sound seems to linger in the barn for a few seconds, but after that it is quiet. I'm mostly silent, and when they look for me they cannot see me in the shades.

She is lying on her back. The nose sticks up, the chest lifts almost imperceptibly. The duvet over the body moves regularly, up and down, up and down.

I Will Not Show Emotion
I have been with my husband for almost two decades, and I have been through the usual stages that in most cases are part of a long-term relationship: falling in love, sex and love, engagement and wedding, more love and sex, pregnancy, birth and puerperium. And I have experienced waves and hills, I have experienced great joys and great sorrows. Together we have experienced the best of the good and the worst of losses.
