DREAMERS

Stillness around
the night has
closed to find
its dreamers.
We are dreamers
of broken illusions –
We dream the dream
and hope the thought
what might, but isn’t …
We care to dare
what could, but wouldn’t.
We are dreamers –
but the night
won’t last …

TRAVELS

And even though
I had wandered
a thousand miles
toward my destination,

I realized, when reaching
the place, I had longed
for all those years, that
only shadows were there –

Way back, hundreds
of miles, of days –
which I had experienced
with always different sunrises –

I had passed my destination.
Way back – too late now,
the roads backward
in time are closed …

NIGHT

Sleep will not
rest upon
my dreams –
The candle burns
before its time.
Lost causes
chase the
striking clock
and moments
weep their memories.


Before this day
will dawn again
I seek rebirth
with all its pain –
longing for comfort
of that child –
which slept
and dreamt
and rested
at night …

NEW LANDS

The sound of spring
awakens me to new life –
New thoughts, which
I believed forgotten
in long winter nights.

The air so mild, the
smell of green grass,
the sound of splashing
creeks and rivers – calling
me out of my isolation.

Somewhere I hear birds
twitter – passing by
on their way up north.
And I long to travel with
them – to new lands …

THE WIND

I can feel the wind today
stronger than ever
whipping away my tears
of solitude and loneliness.

No longer do I feel him
overpowering me –
we are one – in need
of each other …
