Old streets put the mind at ease
Old souls teach discipline
Old lives teach acceptance of death
And we all know the sacred dance.

People feel weighted
The world feels weighted
These cobblestone streets have too much weight
Life can't give way to life.

Put your feelings aside
Don't let them crawl on your own skin
Cast your net to the other side
Let it free you from your sins.

The last time I loved
(So, so,
So long ago)

Fruit spilled itself
In the garden

And insects sang
And rejoiced
In the split flesh

And the soil leapt
With joy
And sprouted
Tiny seedlings.

The last time
I loved

Her womb welcomed
Seed and cried
In happiness
And fecund abundance.

But the last time was
So,so
So long ago

could stare forever
into the rising sun
with all it's promise

dark song

i was
playing
my guitar
in the dark
and
the sounds
oh the sounds!
were more
graceful
than the ones
played
in the
daylight.

the tips
of my fingers
were
no more
insecure
and
i
was just
feeling
the mistakes.
so playing the guitar alone in my blue room at night is a feeling

the stars will not light up tonight
they seem to fear the dark.
they realised the sky is just a trap
and people are too small to care about.

so this night i will live my life
because darkness is now in all of us
and i feel so beautiful and wild.

the world is violet, black and blue
so i do not care if you once pretended
to be a sane sad dreamer too.
dance your own dance and then fly.

now i can touch all my ilussions,
i decide whats poisonous for my mind
now the wind is playing with my hair
and the world that used to know me is far
far away.
get free!

i don't need people.
the sun embraces me
everyday,
the salty waves
greet me at nights,
and the stars
dance beside me
with their disco light.

i find myself in
this quiet,honest,wild
world,
where every bird's song
and every wind blow
is playing in the
background.

nothing hurts me,
everything is just as it is.
another *poem* about how much i started to love nature in the last past weeks '_'
