children's park
two swings
one broken
childhood memories
a desire to time travel
i know i can do it
nightfall
barely any trace of humanity
darkness
cold and clear sky
feet take me to the swing
only now
as an adult
do i feel
the infinite poetry in swinging
swinging alone
in the dark,
head up to the sky,
eyes asking for salvation from the hidden stars
give me your blue peace
take me up forever
breathe your infinite void into my soul
heart keeps hoping for a flight
eyes keep looking at the sky
soul's afraid to miss a second of the infinite silence
even the screech of the old iron swing
can't break the harmony
it's the harmony itself
it's the universal sadness
mind awakens the feet
fears return -
darkness,
aloneness,
strangers passing by
spreading more fear
with their cold eyes-
the swing stops
the illusion of reality returns-
get me home,
i feel belonging in those four walls
only when sleep aggravates on my eyes-
other times it's all about incessant estrangement...
