On your steps' pavement

Of my long searching

Call me a human

In deepest silence

I will find my self

Wherever I am

Destiny - Part X: The End is Not

Some ends are never meant to be
Or go beyond what others see;
Some stories old revive with time,
Told by aged men for just a dime:

Sailors witnessed close to the dust
A ghosting ship of wooden cast
As breaks the waves as high they are
With a pirate flag on its spar.

Quite modern ships dared on its tail,
In the attempt all seemed to fail -
That ghost was fast, faster than wind,
In just a flash its image thinned.

A drunk seaman swore on its beard
A young captain’s voice to have heard
How it commands in an old tongue
As others warble an aged song:

“Oh old Mary, your heart’s ever young
From grip of fate we are all flung,
We love the seaway and fear not,
To captain’s voice we listen ought!”

How much, how much she loved this song,
She felt so young, she felt so strong,
There was no wave that could resist,
In captain’s wish she found her gist.

The captain felt he’d not aged a bit,
Was even faster in his wit -
Was with his love and all’s that counts,
Doesn’t all in fact to love amounts?

They used to sail from sea to sea -
Unbound by time, forever free,
Afar from world and what it brings,
Apart from fate and all its strings.

In flight years passed with hundreds now,
The oceans changed no matter how,
The mankind raised as fast it fell -
No one has lived enough to tell.

Far, far away from the known shore
A ghosting ship not searching more -
Pushed by her love she travels fast,
She found her way into the gust.

Fickleness

Averse clouds
Never arriving
Anywhere

Lives

Of what great use
One thousand lives
If can’t feel one

Of what great use
One thousand lives
If one can’t feel

Containment

Noisy parrots
Crossing the blue sky
Contained chaos

Insality

Wrecking feelings
Because they reckoned
To exist

Moonlight

This ravishing moon
I can not encompass it
In a daylight dream

Asleep

I dream of spring
And when it came
I’m still dreaming

What is life
But fluid image
Catching itself

Choose your sins
By depth of my heart
Cherry blossoms

Discontinuum

Torn by stillness
The heart’s distorted
Between two pasts

Mirroring

Mind upon itself
Mirroring of a mirror
Its self a mirror

Birds

Clear imbalanced wings
A heart to hold the balance
In one’s fragile flight

Walks

The sweetness of nights
Succumbed into days
With you and my thoughts

Steps

The wonder that
I met you at last
On the last steps

The hardship that
Our ways departed
With the first marks

Sensibility

The way I wish
To feel the end
Into your touch

Flight

First butterfly
Dressed in the colors
Of the sunlight

Bubbles

Much of seeing
Is lost in seeing
Rain bubbles rain

Raindrops

Into the rain
One's driedout heart cries
Controlled folly

Depth

Hearts not broken
Barely know the depth
Of their own light

Humbleness

An empty bowl
Never gets too full
Of emptiness

Emptiness

No single flurries
As the desert comes our way
Artificial leaves

Steps

We meet again
Over the same bridge
Runaway steps

A twig standing straight
In contrast with another
Supportless beauty

Roaming inside
While stilling outside
Pestilence

Home's fireplace
Fond thoughts fighting
With old flames

The mind slipping
On the veils of thought
Fond stormy snow

Taste of moonshine
On the lips of thought
Braking patterns

Postponing life
For a better day
Senseless snowflakes

Buzz

Stubborn flies
Crossing the daylight
Coexisting

One full moon
After another
Web of deceit

Deceiving thieves
Concealing the moon
In broad daylight

We start as glitters
End like shadows of the light
We carried within

Choosing a snowflake

Then letting it disappear
In oblivion

Trees catching

Scattered flakes of snow
For a new coat

One waits a lifetime
For a few seconds of grace
As they’re passing by

One thousand words
In bits of silence
Unintended

I’ll be ok
Felt a snowflake
In the rain

Flight

Chemise of iron
For sake of appearances
Fragile butterfly

A joker’s acts
On the old world’s stage
Laugh if you can

Divide

Assembling the world
To dismantle it anew
In seamless puzzles

Flurries

The curling wind
Through an old album
Not letting go

Pain

This pain of living
In eternal happiness
Oh sweet bitterness

Seeds

In obscurity
Lie the seeds of truth
Unseeded blossoms

Winter

So alike
In differences
Midwinter night

Fjords

Each single soul
A far out fjord
Awakening

Dreams

Dreaming of you

Without waking up
Heart surrenders

Belonging

I might be the drop
In an endless blue ocean
Together apart
