abandoning the wish to understand

feels like losing dignity

yet it might be where

true dignity begins

being unconnected

does not necessarily mean

being absent

white moonlight

generously falling

in through the windows

drawing geometric patterns

on walls and floors

while cold is running

along the outskirts of the room

and patience is required

to accompany the night

storm

bringing fear to the surface

whirling up memories

which were thought to be gone

allowing peace to reach corners

which were so far

out of reach

mild winds

and full moon

intense colours

with a scent of earth

caressing every perception

being serious

as being sensitive

is not a choice

if choice there is

it would be

how to get around it

wind whirling

the first falling leaves

to the ground

where they softly cover the earth

in gold

as to remind the world

how every season has

its glory

running to satisfy

expectations

is indeed a race of anxiety

where running towards ourselves

can only be

a release of joy

no matter how long the distance

a whirlpool of emotions

dragging towards its own centre

with no other perspective

than being absorbed in its own importance

yet

emotions are

not

everything

the moon

walking in and out

layers of clouds

throwing glimpses of beauty

into the observing eye

throwing a different kind of light

into a different kind of darkness

where nothing is longer

the same

saturated

by too many words

of no meaning

and no other reason to be

than covering up

the hidden beauty

of a sensitive soul
