Cycle Your Heart Out Barcelona - #NoTincPor

We are Barcelona 

Birds replaced with helicopters,
Music drowned out by sirens,
Festival plans changed to marking myself safe.

Hate breeds hate,
Love breeds love,

Reaching for my map, I knew what needed to be done...

Drawing a red line from the top to the bottom of the Ramblas,
Following the pen along Passeig de Colom, and into Ciutadella Park.

Line by line,
Passeig de Gracia
La Padera
Place Catalunya
Line by line,
You’re now complete.

The red pen is then replaced by bicycle tyres.

Every pedal,
Every push,
Breathing in and out,
Soaking into my memory.


For every flower I see,
Every candle I notice,
Every message I read,
I am no longer scared,
I no longer feel fear.

We are not afraid
We are Barcelona,

Your heart beats on.
