sometimes
someone
say something significant
soundless
better
there are so many ways
to act
not one is better
than the other
the importance is
to act according
to the given measure
exhaustion
waking up to exhaustion
is not necessarily what one dream of
yet it might be a reality
worthy to face
not as a punishment
nor as a failure
just a state
as so many others
compass
arriving at a crossroad
with no map
is not necessarily
obvious
the less when the inner compass seems
to have lost its needle
to silence and pose for a moment
might be the best way ahead
map
when the map
which has been navigated after
leads to places
where nothing thrives
it might be
that time has come
to look
for another map
ghosts
a night full of ghosts
and a glorious sunrise
after days of grey
approval
cold winds harassing
the fragile beauty of spring
strengthening what is strong enough
to survive
eliminating everything
which is not
looking to another for approval
is eliminating the transformative power
of the moment
membrane
vulnerability
as a membrane
filtering darkness into light
when only it is being
received
and accepted
inside
being unable to reach
beyond emotions
whatever the emotion might be
is a poisonous prison
inside the body
breaking free of it
a matter of
receiving light
description
underneath some words
lies a different reality
than what they are aiming to describe
though
what they are aiming to describe
is what the describer believes to be
reality
it can be considered a lie
though
it might just be lack of
awareness
