The beginning
The middle
The end
A waiting world
Takes a break
Waiting for night
Waiting for light
A hesitant moon
Makes its move
Rising in power
Rising in might
A heart from you
A heart for me
A heart with your
Sweet liberty
I feel your soul
I feel your love
I feel your care –
Soft gentle dove
And we love orange!
Splinters of orange
Crack apart the sleeping night –
Gray morphs into day
I’ll be your flower
Your petal, your sun, your light –
If you’ll be my stem
Inspired by:
Photo Ni Ompong
I slipped under
Alluring depths
Allowed myself
To be seduced
By water’s kiss
Sometimes.
Once in a while, you meet someone.
And in that instant, your life lights up
Like a candle waiting for its flame.
And then you know.
You know that everyone else –
Everything gone before
Was just wasting all your time.
My lover passes me by
Without looking my way
No touch is made
No attempt at love
And I wonder
Am I
Could I
Be
Is it even possible
For a woman
In her nakedness
To be
Invisible?
