meeting
saudade
if only
you could see
what I see in you
hear what
I cannot say
you are
what no words
can contain
like all that is sacred
treasured, in my heart
you remain
you are..
you are to me
more than a story
more than a memory
profound meeting
the soul lights up
when it comes across
a sincere emotion
the fire in the eyes
the sun in each spark
burns away the shadows
of seeming separation
flowering lament
the boundaries have dissolved
and music ceaselessly plays
held captive by your gaze
I have become a moth to flame
with nothing left to say
I am melting in this moment
slowly fading in your haze
embrace me
in your arms
and let me escape
…..
inspired by one of the most moving compositions I have heard : Lament by Jacaszek

ask from the dark clouds
or the flaming hearth
of endless nights spent
in waking eyes
that knew
neither rest
nor sleep
ask from the tears
that were too tired
to be wept
from the lips that bled
unutterable words
in sweet pain
of longing
all seeking
in unison
a window
a door
to reach you,
to enter
your perfumed garden
only to find
one full moon night
as if it were a dream
as if I needed to be pinched
in that fleeting moment
when I saw
you closing the window
me inside
with you
me inside
with the beauty unseen
with the timeless truth
giving me a dose
of intoxication
that will take
a few lifetimes to recover
that will take
more than
a few lifetimes
to recover
