Dream
Me Mar 2020
There is a huge pit of
burning fire available to you-
you better cut all
remaining ties
of fear
that fuel it
Me May 2020
The puppeteer thinking
all along he's
in charge and power while
all the puppets know very well
and play along for his sake since
without them he'd be
just downright lonely so they
let him off the strings
slowly and with
utmost caution
and only when they know
he's ready

And he is ready now

I Love You

I don't need
To hear You say it to know
That You love me but I love
To see You
Express it.

Embracing
Me May 2020
I am a woman holding
a sword and able
to fight
I am a woman commanding with most
harsh and assertive words
I am a woman making
the sharpest decisions
I am a man knowing
all of my feelings
I am a man holding space
for a woman
I am a man loving
without conditions
I am two hands reaching
out for each other
I am
an embrace
long awaited

[I am the mother and the child]
Me May 2020
Wearing a crown quite often
makes you feel very
lonely
and burdened

A weight on your head that
if you be honest
never fully felt
yours
in the first place

Now
sharing the weight
handing over a little
splinter of
this
very
crown
does feel

so much lighter
and just

Your shield and sword merge
into one thing being
a dead sure

eternally
I'm tired of shielding myself or even filtering **** out. I am what I am.

A good-
Pleasant warmth
Around my heart

The Snail's Trail
Me Jun 2020
A sparkling
sticky trail on a
wet forest path

A morning between
broad-leafed trees and
speedy bugs

Blackbird couples
skimming
the leafy ground

Soft
eager rays of
silver light
separated by
red tree trunks

Reflecting back from
the snail's trail
tracing it
like your eyes do

Night Sky Greeting
Me Mar 2020
The moon has shown its crescent form; pale but warm light through milky clouds in the night sky. It felt crisp, and yet like soft touch. The moon beams at you, and your heart jumps at its kind expression.

No words
No making up or-

Leading Towards
Me Jun 2020
What is and was and will be

I can handle this
Your
lips between
my legs the first time
I remember
I can actually
handle this

hundreds of
intense
impressions
memories
at a time
I can
actually
handle this

Us
both on a
rocking ship
you holding
my camera
I will
handle this

You every
year making
fig jam for me
flinching at my
stupid joke when we run out
haha-
We can
handle this

You handing over the
binoculars to me
watching
goats in the middle of
nowhere
We will
actually
really
handle this

Baby
Your eyes
saying
everything's connected
and I pull back
just a little
thinking
will we
handle this


You
looking
at me
and nothing
is out of place
nothing else needs
to be
added

We will
actually
truly
handle this,
Love
We
will
actually
handle this

Here
Me Apr 2020
You walk towards the white door, this time more confident.
With a feverish look you pierce its handle,
your hand hovering centimetres above it.
You turn around again, around to what lies behind you.
What is past now, but still with you. Not forgotten. Not gone,
still with you, if you want to access it. All your loved ones, still there. What is gone is the fear; the bonds that were once built in such high voltage moments of panic and survival instincts - those moments.

And you take a breath,
calm, more or less.

The Heart of Hearts
Me Jul 2020
Inside of you sits
a beating heart
that patiently waits til it feels
safe to take you
right through the core and out again
all the time
reminding you
with every subtle beat
of all the other
beating hearts
all of them
beginning to remember
how well they knew
each other
always

Black Hole White Hole

In the Innermost core you'll find
Your own Wish to turn outward
And reconnect

An encoded memory
To keep going

To make
For the sake of making

Me Jul 2020
On a bright sunny morning
Up in a field of chance
An orange-hooded creature shows
A vivid dance on a
White mountain top
Encircled in a cloud
Of greenish surging fog
Ad hoc thoughts
Throb through
Veins and arteries
And nothing there that might
Disturb the scenery
Dance!

Of Going Home

You want to go home
How I got it

You can go home soon
How this was

Into my view today
Dancing in the air

A relieved
Exhale putting

Two pine trees swaying
In the wind like dancers
And the old walnut
Broke

My heart is swelling when I think
About all you did for me
Totally selfless
Also
It cries for you
Because I see that you dealt with the horrors
All alone
Not anymore now.

Collapsing of a Wave
Me Jun 2020
Propelling
itself
joyfully through
the Space around
colliding
and spinning to dance
all the way thinking
You did not give me
agency
singing
and laughing to
itself when
the next
new
wave
meets its path
to cancel out
all that
seemed paradox
You did not need
to give me
agency
the Photon sings
while travelling
along its
chosen path
48 · Apr 2020
Is it just that
Me Apr 2020
Is it just that
all things now
come together
Is it just
a warm confirmation
Is it
what I hope it
to be
Is this
a question,
Dear
or is it already
your answer

The Dance
Me Mar 2020
Down from
the earth a vibrant
humming sound fills
its spot makes
you gasp
propel hot
waves through
your legs up
into
your lungs
come
love
do not ever
stop
Me May 13
In the
Eye of the
So called storm
There is a place
Of full inner Peace
Letting you cope with
The so called
Chaos of Life
With a vivid smile
Forming

You nod once
In quiet recognition

And I feel my affection
Not
Hit any walls

The Golden Scale

A golden
Scale
Reflects
From where it lies
There in the stream
A gleaming
Single
Ray of light
Directs it so that
It
Precisely
Hits
The iris
Of my resting eye
And
By its
Sheer power
Makes me
Shiver

I Tell You What

YOU don't need
anyone to tell you
how to grief
correctly how
to comfort a friend in
need how to
perceive the last deed of the guy in the news
that tore a
hole in you
for no
apparent reason
You don't need me to act
the way you feel
is right and ample
you don't need any bearded guy in any
temple tell you why
you're here
You don't even need to
finish reading
dear
get on with it
go
play the way YOU
like

Perfection
Me Mar 2020
Sunshine. A small Spanish town in the mountains. Coffee. A table with three old men gambling and smoking and laughing. The town square lively with noise and kids' feet trampling and playing. Two women in a friendly conspiracy talk about their men. In the middle, a spot, and everything is right and as it should be. Freedom. And the sound of a spring with birds' song.
Patience.

Rose Line
Me Aug 2020
It could be like this,
she says, disguising her pride by
raising one thin eyebrow
in what she hopes
is an eloquent manner
giving him the pains of
hiding
best as he can
the loving smile that wanted to pop onto his face
and beam, fully, at her;
It could be
just like this:
and he reads it

Already somewhere
in yet darker corners and still
slightly hidden
sights
some are mumbling
about love returning
about something
utterly
rejuvenating yet
slightly painful
returning
into
a stream of life blood
a stream
making it
for the first time
as it should be


A thunder growling in the distance
but it is not threatening

A beaming smile
now coming through
against all odds
inevitably

A dashed blasted, beaming
most beautiful
smile

Out of the Woods
Me May 2020
Out of the woods stumbles, falls the most lovable creature,
beaming red face half smiling half bewildered and tears everywhere, scratches on the cheeks and forehead and even on the nose,
thick eyebrows covering beaming eyes.
You take first
hesitant
steps
, walk towards the tree line, where the grass melts into the soil and touches the tree trunks.
This face, beaming; Your eyes, still a bit fearful to meet.
But oh you cannot really wait.
You take more steps, walk a bit faster now,
watch your own feet as their pace quickens…
still quickens…
How your heart opens, reaches out
I feel like a deer!
Me Mar 2020
Through the
heart of the earth
not the mind you can feel
it's a kind act
coming
from motherly decision making
from taking you
into a place of
collaborative
self-responsibility
