affection

giving in order to receive

is always an unbalance

also when

the return expected

is only a little bit of

affection

cut

cutting through

layers of illusions

to reach the core of the matter

no longer searching for any other solution

than observing truth

under

walking under a soft and gentle rain

while autumn settles in

can be a way

of accepting to be

a burden

ideals

leaving behind the world of ideals

to enter reality

might be a frail experience

where the skin seems thinner

and the heart weak

yet

in that frail weakness

lies a different kind of

presence

gaining

gaining back integrity

once it has been lost

is a frail affaire

far from impossible

and yet somehow taking a miracle

to happen

cheat

cheating can become a habit

to a degree

where even the consciousness about

our doing

can no longer penetrate

the mind

despite the knowledge that

the one being cheated in the end

is ourselves

screen

the perfect balance

between day and night

the perfect balance between

darkness and light

where shadows are not perceived

as punishment

but seen as beautiful figures

parading on the screen of life

adamant

aligning the sensual

the emotional

and the intellectual

is adamant

for truth to run

through every layer

of a being
