Okay!
I agree
the earth is in
dire need
scared and blemishes
from sea to sea
a major facelift
would set the earth free
from the likes
of you and me!
Save the whales
save the trees
bring back paradise
bring back the bees
okay
I agree!

Her night
wasn’t what
I imagined…
her darkness
was dreary
void of compassion…
cold and sleepy
she held me under…
in a spell
of dreamy dread
I wandered…
restless I awoke
sweaty and soaked
her tentacle clinging
of unresolved hopes..

The beautiful day
was well under way
as I left the night behind
so I let it all go
and took to the road
following the one way sign
….

I am so afraid to fall
that I do not let myself fly

I say to myself
"I can't do it"
but I never really tried

too far up
too close to the Sun
I cling to the Earth
trembling

how much courage
will it take
for me to learn
to trust my wings?

I know the things I need to change
but I don't have the power yet

I want to be a charioteer
but I feel like a marionette

now every day I take small steps
and train my brain with little things

so one day I will have the strength
to break the strings
and take the reins
