It feels like
Me and You Feb 2020
No words
No making up or-
Just a simple
Wordless hug
I miss you

I forgot my

Not a problem,

Love Liberates
Me and You May 2020
Love
after all
has the power to
fully
liberate you
My mother's death taught me this hardest of lessons.
You can only let go what is in your heart already ❦

The Flight
Me and You Mar 2020
In my mind I see
a single
pinkish
petal
zigzagging through the air
according to a very
private logic
and I am stunned
by the beauty
of it

Here
Me and You 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.

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

The Dream Land
Me and You Aug 2020
Somewhere in the prairie
A wolf howls
And it could be anywhere
But it taps you
Right on the shoulder
Belying

The Heart of Hearts
Me and You 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
to Jamadhi Verse; thank you for inspiring me to write this  :)

The Dance
Me and You 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

do not ever
stop

Of Going Home
Me and You May 2020
How you said
whining
You want to go home
How I got it
then
and answered
You can go home soon
How this was
probably
the hardest thing
I ever did
Hospital scenes

The Naked Man
Me and You May 2020
What a beautiful
Sight
The naked man
Courageous and
Completely unashamed
Me and You Jan 2020
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.

Still a Bit Impatient

Out of the Woods
Me and You 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!

And say that today

Mercury's Airy Steps

Rushing by
in dust clouds of
red and white he
touches
your shoulder
and you begin

oddly innocent

Is it just that
Me and You 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

I Tell You What
Me and You Mar 2020
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 and You 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.

Meet me

to take
my hand

Don't  hesitate

on our path

and walk

Come lift your gaze
courageously
and look
at the
horizon

Walk on
Look
up
Happy new year

I put my heart in this poem
and wrap it

and with a shy grin
tap the upload button

holds out his hand with this

The Heron
Me and You Mar 2020
Surprisingly
on the tip of
the tallest tree outside
sits a heron
still and looking
for the first time
I see
such a big bird
on this tree
and am glad
to have seen it
I said hi, too.

White Flamingo
Me and You Mar 2020
Slightly sad a white
flamingo stands
on two legs
head slightly
tilted
trying to remember
what was it
that I
wanted

what was it...
Me and You Mar 2020
You are not Other
than me but
utterly and
totally free to feel
special
nevertheless
No need
really
to stress Yourself
into the distance
Come on, people...

Rose Line
Me and You 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

Masturbation Ritual
Me and You Apr 2020
It's not all just
hips moving
Love
it's more than that and less
mechanical

A dream of two palms
touching
a spark
ignites the whole of
universe

And later
panting
two kids having run
a long way
smiling at each other

How come this feels so
warm and familiar
and new
all at once

The Shadow Children
Me and You Jan 2020
I played with
Your shadow kids
And you didn't even
Realize
I felt them
And you all couldn't even bear
Their presence
I couldn't let go of them for
A long long time

Because they were so
Used to my
Presence

I hope you'll find them
And acknowledge
Their existence

They exist
For your sake
Reclaim them
And give them
A home
To my family's shadows.

Voice
Me and You Apr 2020
On a warm spring day you are walking along a riverbed, thinking. What is the next step. What is it. You are not waiting for a thought to appear to tell you when and how to take action. You are waiting, in truth, for your being to drop the last layer, to get ready and accept the power. The power of your very own voice, to create the world you want.

Take Space

Hospital Scenes

at the sight of

blood stains-

Inside the Cave
Me and You Mar 2020
[...] If there were shadows on the walls they would be dancing around what appears to be the most outrageous scenery in this whole liquid universe, the one spot of color which could be seen as color: in the center of the deep water lake, the still and tense water, there sits, like a satisfied child crossed-legged and full of sweets, a pink lotus blossom on a bed of its own green thick rubber leaves. This stunning sight contrasts everything else of what this cave accommodates in an almost exaggerated manner. It is a shrill primal artefact in the purest and most humble surrounding.
The flower is there by itself, unaccompanied by any other blossom or plant, and yet it could not be more at ease with its exact position and situation. The mere sight of it is the most pleasant image - if only due to its convulsing inadequateness.

Through the

not the mind you can feel
it's a kind act

from motherly decision making
from taking you
into a place of

Loudness Counts

If you shout
Loud enough

To distract

Love Has No Quantity

I do not play

roam

I wish
that you
sit in a field

and look

Holy Christ how
the hell could we
for so long
leave out
of this gesture
the Mother
how
on earth
could we think
this would work
Just spontaneously was VERY outraged last night about this.

Oh I don't

are you not
glad I came
to terms with this?
