The Beginning.

as the sun connects with the earth in the early morning

I stand on a wavy land, peaceful and empty

I watch the birth of the day, defenceless like a baby

which lives on its own, a country lying between worlds

a tiny space, just a miniature crack in time

that is where I meet my Spirit

in that place I realise how much I crave silence

and a barefoot walk, a sound of a frozen dew

softly breaking as I go, nothing more, nothing less

only the most intimate moment which shows my genuine self

the pure and new creation.

Authority.

How long will I stumble upon you

The ruthless stain of past

With your sticky fingers

You creep behind me

and want to steal

Trying to bind my feet

I know you.

Familiar mouldy smell of blame

Be gone and don't ever return

You own nothing.

You own nothing.

Untamed.

I've always felt intrigued by your thinking

serpentine and deep

I often got lost on that path

I must confess

but it always led somewhere

and taught me things

I've become a tireless explorer

as you pushed me further

like a severe wind

and just like that

I fell in love with an untamed mind.

Home.

Everything is silent.

Maybe just a brontide

and remains of summer rain

try to comfort my wooden roof

Tock...tock-tock....tock...tock

Ah... and a soothing touch of petrichor..

Don't say a word..

Just listen..

Breathe..

You're home.

I choose joy.

I'll buy clouds

carefully wrapped around a stick

like a candyfloss.

What a delight

to taste a piece of sky!

Today and tomorrow

I'll reach for the sweetness of being

I choose the holy joy

No. I'm not afraid to dream

like a child

I'll harvest love.

and I'll get lost in what you call

Wonderland.

Gone

Sometimes I feel

like falling on my knees

You could hear my bones breaking

along with my heart

Crushing from within

You could sweep me like a dust

from the ground

blow me away

That's how you could see me

Gone with the wind.

Melting me

You surround me, beat me with feathers

Like air, like a subtle shade of pink

You float, you merge with me

Craving, longing

Melting the ice

It reminds me of shimmering garlands

Hanging from the ceiling

Reflecting beauty

Like hundreds of silvery mirrors

Silky petals soaking in

You're all around, but I cannot see

There's just a fragrance so delicate

I almost faint

Everywhere but nowhere

That is now your existence

Marble eyes

Tell me what you see 

In stormy, stormy seas

Thunder! Thunder!

Memories drowning in waters deep

Skies are kissing wounds with lightning

And lullabies are sung

Fiercely in the heavy rain

Shapeless sailors sink with ships

They look into each other's eyes

And wonder if the waves around

Will consume the heart of mine

Fingerprint

Velvet are those words of yours

I can almost feel them on my skin

They descend gently from the sky

Like feathers swaying from side to side

Velvet are those words of yours

Peacefully settling in my mind

They dwell on my lips, refusing to leave

Like tiny lovely inhabitants

Velvet are those words of yours

So powerful and yet so soft

Their lives are short, like those of snowflakes

But never go away without leaving

Just a fingerprint

Echoes

I lost you in echoes, quietly

somewhere between U and I

I can still hear you whisper

in the corner of my mind

You sing that song

and it feels like sugar

Sweet, friendly pieces of tunes

melting on my tongue

I lost you in echoes, quietly

and I know that in the morning

the taste I love is

...gone.
