a calm twilight
caresses the shores of the gently flowing stream
golden reeds whisper their evening song
so peacefully

a single call of a bird brings no distortion
it’s a lullaby for the sun going under
flowers fold their leaves as in prayer
waiting for the night to cover them up

and I
I sit here
wishing nothing else

layers of dark
cold sadness

a sacred and profound
inner experience

emptiness
shows the strength
to be filled again the

brilliant
like
a diamond

until
I could
see through you

carrying you
like a devil
on my shoulder
whispering sweet lies

want to stop

my head says yes
my heart says no

I stop thinking
before I forget to live this incredible beautiful life

Tomorrow is another day

I think….

soft music is playing
while my thoughts are drifting
I am instantaneously  
taken to faraway places
where dedication prevails
and we
understand each other without words

paper carefully ***** my words
sentences are formed
liquid and dark as velvet
like flowers of silence

tones of a gentle song  
are showing the monologue
born out of my being

it has been
a long time
when I tuned the strings
and wrote the arrangements

and still I’m busy
bringing them to perfection
