This is not like other nights
This is more
But how to describe a sea of feelings when the words don’t flow?
When the words are somehow hard as rock and weigh it down
But you can’t just pick them up
and let them skip on your sea
How do I turn rocks into fish?
How do I give them fins to swim and gills to breathe?
How do I make them part of the life that fills the water?
Probably the same way I mark the paper with the mind and soul of me

There’s gold in them hills
Pack your bags
Take that book and some bread
Maybe a shirt or two
Put on your shoes
And then: start.

Take the first step even though you don’t know where the second one will go
Breathe that air of the new place
And then: go on.

Look at that sky, you fool
Can’t you see the stars arranged themselves to fit your view?
So go follow them
Make them make sense

Wake up to the beating of my heart, will you?
Sleep on my chest while listening to my voice
singing to the beat of your heart
Challenge the way I think
Burst my fears with pride spreading through both our veins
Laugh with my soul
Dance with the way my feet walk barefoot through the grass
Make it easy
Say my words while I think your thoughts
Drive me insane with the way you hear what people say with their eyes
Make me realise the pain I will never feel again
Stop the things that make me break
Cherish the moments that haven’t happen yet
Hold my hand with your mind
Love my mind with your touch
Write like my mouth could ink the paper itself
Do the things I would never ask with words
Let your body dream my dreams
But most of all
and this is the important bit
Do it all with Me.

I’m breathing in the air
That swallows it all
Too slow for the world to see

I’m alone in the dark
That swallows it all
Crying for another reason

I’m singing in the silence
That swallows it all
Soothingly to myself

Falling to sleep
With the thought after
Watching, Reading, Listening
Contently crying
Thinking happy

— The End —
