I remember the sound of the waves, The murmur of many voices, The pavement under our feet. I remember your silhouette: Almost always next to me, Perhaps a little bit ahead. I remember the mornings And the wind in my hair, Late light on the buildings, A world bathed in gold. I remember the stars that shone so brightly, The aurorae that danced before our eyes. I remember the words of kindness, The promises shared And arguments too. Comings and goings, Meetings and partings, Silence and laughter, Tomorrows, Todays. All the things you have kept safe for so many years May we share them once more, Forevermore.
Among the smell of molding leaves They laid you; Yet a living man, Given to earth. Salvation comes. Like many gone before and since A living altar; prison Of flesh. Death stays his hand. Go forth. Exist.
The hands of the clock march: one step forward and two steps back. The night stretches into infinity Let us imagine a world where things went right Ah, it is this one. My mistake My arrogantly naïve belief in my own ability and utility Worth measured by the ease of taking a life There, the performance ends. Onto the next one! Strike the stage. The crowds leave; with them, the protagonists: New roles to play, new stories to tell, busy with living. Empty auditorium left for you to clean up: Echoes of hopes, demands, fears, regrets, complaints, suffering No addressee Only you, only you, only you, only you.
Lone sapling To the gale It bends, immovable Roots, fingers, claws Dig in Grip tight Wish for a life Do not let go. Far, far above In skies untrodden Freedom invincible Birds make their flight.

Date: 2021-09-28 02:39 pm (UTC)I remember the sound of the waves,
The murmur of many voices,
The pavement under our feet.
I remember your silhouette:
Almost always next to me,
Perhaps a little bit ahead.
I remember the mornings
And the wind in my hair,
Late light on the buildings,
A world bathed in gold.
I remember the stars that shone so brightly,
The aurorae that danced before our eyes.
I remember the words of kindness,
The promises shared
And arguments too.
Comings and goings,
Meetings and partings,
Silence and laughter,
Tomorrows,
Todays.
All the things you have kept safe for so many years
May we share them once more,
Forevermore.

Yet a living man,
Given to earth.
Salvation comes.
Like many gone before and since
A living altar; prison
Of flesh.
Death stays his hand.
Go forth.
Exist.

Let us imagine a world where things went right
Ah, it is this one. My mistake
My arrogantly naïve belief in my own ability and utility
Worth measured by the ease of taking a life
There, the performance ends. Onto the next one!
Strike the stage.
The crowds leave; with them, the protagonists:
New roles to play, new stories to tell, busy with living.
Empty auditorium left for you to clean up:
Echoes of hopes, demands, fears, regrets, complaints, suffering
No addressee
Only you, only you, only you, only you.

It bends, immovable
Roots, fingers, claws
Dig in
Grip tight
Wish for a life
Do not let go.
Far, far above
In skies untrodden
Freedom invincible
Birds make their flight.

The bonfire burns.
