the change of colours

on the landscape

as light shifts

reflecting with surgical precision

and transparent clarity

what was so far

invisible

when healing guilt

is considered to be

a personal responsibility

one is mostly lost

somewhere down the road

swallowed by a momentous task

beyond

anyone’s capacities

that everything can be

forgiven

or every experience transformed

into a lesson of deep learning

does not mean

everything can be

explained

even less

justified

stirred

but not shaken

is how

the atrocities

of human behaviours

might be faced

without losing faith

learning to accept

how

being in the right place

at the proper time

sometimes means

being somewhere different

from

where our emotions

or our understanding

would want us to be

silver mist

illuminated by

rays of light

falling through the fog

in an incandescent reflection

on the quiet water

carrying a luminous soul

from one dimension

to

another

when what is considered

the end

is nothing but

new beginnings

glory expands

into cascades of splendour

staying long enough

in the discomfort

to gain awareness

discomfort is all it is

nothing to do with

who we are

gently beginning to allow

the emotion to dissolve

and let

what is real

be real

trying to explain

in order to avoid

the inevitable responsibility

for our mistakes

rather than asking for

forgiveness

for the misbehaviour

no matter how unconscious

it rules our minds

is to deprive ourselves

from an unending stream

of loving kindness

arriving at the end

in a silent victory

nothing victorious

and yet so deeply triumphant

in the most subtle

delicate

loving manner

a mind

can envisage
