The First Time
Me and You Nov 2020
In the middle of the middle
of no space
a pair of yellow, childlike eyes,
innocent and with
just a trace of oblivion,
opens
Is it open, or opens?

Evoke
Me and You Nov 2020
Bleeding hands,
dear rub
your  face
analyse over and over
       what is there to ask but
one thing:
do you
really wanna cling to this
do you
Ask the question that implies the answer;
Ask from the place of the answer to help this part get to you.

Outward
Me and You Oct 2020
Something inside is beating louder, louder still. Hands fingers legs toes already spread as wide as possible and tense of knowing. Spread out and connected, less than a beat from-

This creature is just about to send a vigorous beat out - send it outward - crash - everything that it had acquired
everything out, accumulated within the vibrance of
this
beat
in unbending blazing green beams of fast light -
light that goes through - that does not even know any kind of barrier nor reflection - this light does not need to think to plan to manage - this light is send out to be
something so strong there are no words -

You do not need to fear it though. You do not need to fear it.
It is for you. To be where you are, it sings.
It sings, whirrs, with no mercy.

You think of vines of ivy and something else. Of the light,
traveling where ever it likes. Unapologetically.

Night Sky Greeting
Me and You Mar 2020
The moon has shown its crescent form; pale but warm light through milky clouds in the night sky. It felt crisp, and yet like soft touch. The moon beams at you, and your heart jumps at its kind expression.

Self-Appreciation

Your shield and sword merge
into one thing being
a dead sure
statement

you can
uphold
eternally
I'm tired of shielding myself or even filtering **** out. I am what I am.

Wounded Angel
Me and You Jul 2019
If you had told me
before
how unbelievably unguarded
I would feel
after we'd blown the walls
of that cave-

I'd have to do it
all over again.
Blast!
Me and You Jan 2020
A thousand knives are pointing
Right at your body
In the middle
And your gaze desperately looks
For something to
Be fixed upon
Looks
Looks
Keeps  looking
then-
Holds in
And breathes-
Before the final seizing of the moment
And turns
Inward
Finds its grip
Again
And now
From here
Has safety
Has nothing here to fear
Your body sinks into
The world
Faces the knives
And smiles

In No Time
Me and You Nov 2020
Little thin shy lines of green light
Stretch out their heads
Connect
If allowed
And send a beating
Pulse back
Have your heart melt
In no time

So laugh,

Guilt
Me and You Apr 2020
I cry today for
all those
hurtful moments
for  having been pushed and
having let them push me
into  fear of guilt
Last night I had a shocking aha-dream, and I realised I was afraid of feeling guilty in so many moments in my life, as a child too, guilty of  other people's suffering. It is SO cruel if children grow up thinking they are responsible for their  whole family ...

I miss you

I can't wait

I love you.

Summoning
Me and You Nov 2020
Night exhales
Her cold breath in your face
Telling you stories of fear

A nightingale shouts
Her little heart out
For your soul to hear
Where to reach

A rush through the air
Your head tilted back
By a violent grab of your hair

A little bird's flutter
Two lips that stutter
A motionless prayer

A story of Night
That likes to play make-believe

A young pounding heart
That learns within brief
It was played from the start

This tale
Just a dream
Of tonight
I honestly do not know what has gotten into me. Scaring myself a bit.

The Tiger and the Lion
Me and You Mar 2020
A tiger walks beside
a lion
hip to hip
they talk
about how quiet
the world had
become
and how much they
enjoy to be
walking beside
each other
how mother nature
now
allows it

Point of View
Me and You May 15
As you grew into
Your true Form the scenery
Before your very eyes,
Too,
Changes and turns
Into the live version of what you
Always perceived
As remembering forward.

You are perfect, cause time has always been for you.

Secret Companions
Me and You Nov 2020
A girl in the streets, *****, untidy hair a scary look on the face plays
a violin facing
all the while
the man who hates it

One by one he
cuts
her strings but she
keeps playing without a single
alteration on her face

Not even after the
very
last
string has - with a final thud - been cut in half
does she stir

And only when -

It's only then that he does realise
grows pale and with wide eyes feels something sting:
the sound never came from the instrument.

He exhales
gives in
surrenders to the
vibrant sound surrounding
his every cell and hair and thought
bathes
in what ought to be
for so long
50 · May 15
Free from
Me and You May 15
You shake of the little
That still clings
To your Form, with loving
Assertion

We can do this now

Shake of your old roles
And in this way allow freedom to become
Non-possesive

A Story of Three
Me and You Oct 2020
A girl with soft hair cut
herself in three parts once;
One to break forth
and live
through every wild adventure,
one to pretend
to hold her back
to never lack the challenge,
and then the third to have
this story
written down and merge them
back together
like feathers falling from the sky
before your feet
and have you read this,
Dear,
and have you
read this

Nature
Me and You Jul 2020
She speaks
truth
only
and feels
the immense
resistance and
defence
the guarding
of locked-up things
that call her
over the heads of
the defender
okay so
not the time yet

she has to repeat
to herself and the things
not the time
yet

A reason

Emerging
Me and You Aug 2020
The impact of your golden boots on the cobble stone is heavy,
getting more decisive with every step of the path, forward.
Your deep-red silk cloak sways in the wind
and covers your shoulders and back;
you are on the way, and it is good.

Imagine a king who sets one foot in front of the other, not yet
a hundred percent convinced
that he is going to like his job, this work.
A king who, nevertheless, takes it, because it is his place
and because it is time.
Imagine a king walking with heavy step so as to be heard;
a king whose first command is one pronounced with utter clarity - because it is necessary.
Imagine a king emerging,
leaving all insecurities behind - because it is time.

Imagine this king, secretly pressing - under his red cloak -
his right hand on a spot a bit above his pounding heart,
bracing himself.
For all this is new.

Imagine a king who is human, and knows it.

"You taught me the courage of stars
before you left
How light carries on endlessly,
even after death
With shortness of breath
You explained the infinite
And how rare and beautiful it is
to even exist"

Downhill
Me and You Apr 2020
With every step you gain confidence.
The night air smells of oregano and rosemary and dust. As you reach the lower, flatter area again, you are surrounded by more green.
The poppies’ red is more difficult to make out without daylight
but you add the shade of bright red
from your imagination.

Integration
Me and You Dec 2020
You're
allowed to breathe
with everything you are
You're allowed
to breathe and
take
Space

wrap yourself around
those obstacles
like water
til they
melt
These days something in me feels like I'm not allowed to breathe fully. I have to really breathe consciously to not stop halfway through. Some places feel thick.

The Bonfire

familiar tickling

Fearless
Me and You May 13
You think
In the black Hole it's DARK
You know it is Not

You think
This is the end
You know
It is Not

You are pulled INSIDE
Pulled through
Spit Out

Wet, but clear. Shaking
Your head a little
About your own
Uncompromising bravery.

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.

Embracing
Me and You May 2020
I am a woman holding
a sword and able
to fight
I am a woman commanding with most
harsh and assertive words
I am a woman making
the sharpest decisions
I am a man knowing
all of my feelings
I am a man holding space
for a woman
I am a man loving
without conditions
I am two hands reaching
out for each other
I am
an embrace
long awaited

[I am the mother and the child]

Impulse
Me and You Sep 2020
The slightest
twitch

your palm seeking
my chest

still working on
building down
the filters that have your hand stop
in mid-air
Me and You Nov 2020
You look at Yourself, at what you are, how soft you feel, how gentle - and you think - can that be can that really be here -  and you start growing around Yourself grow around until every inch of this gentleness is now
protected until
every cell and non-cell knows
You are supposed to be exactly this way and right here where you are
until you intertwine
with what you protect
know it inside out and
embody it without
hiding without thinking without
fear
Just
Being what you always were
Here and Now.

Waiting for the Rainbow
Me and You May 2020
The rain gets
Stronger now and drops
Noisily
Onto the glass roof top
While first rays
Of light come through
And we
Like kids
Are waiting for the rainbow
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.
Me and You May 2020
Wearing a crown quite often
makes you feel very
lonely
and burdened

A weight on your head that
if you be honest
never fully felt
yours
in the first place

Now
sharing the weight
handing over a little
splinter of
this
very
crown
does feel

so much lighter
and just

Coming Home Now
Me and You Jan 2020
A ship
In sight
Happy to reach
The harbour
Which it has longed
To re-disvover
All my poems seem to repeat themselves by second version of themselves. I don't find it weird any longer :)

Love Liberates

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 ❦
