your whisper (when it made the sky quiver)
was like a lonely dancer...
Smiles, now eroded
into the muddy waters...
I wait, amongst snow,
for the warmth of distant light...
to be by your side
for so much (and yet so little...
when i saw you (and your shadow)
, you were as distant...
Today, the cold shine of winter
is as radiant as the silver shine of the moon...
Off you went:
into the light and its faraway world...
Your songs, its melodies lining like silk
the darkness between rays upon rays of starlight...
Brick by brick, you decayed - like broken dreams
in a world too wide awake to remember...
Your smile opens like a harpist’s hands -
dancing through whispers among strands...
A seed that seeped into the heart, it creeped:
with its silent crawl, with its branches small...
When I grow old and frail
and become lost among the world’s many trails...
