Month: August 2023

expressing an emotion

can be a way

to gain awareness

and acknowledge it

though the essential part

is still

to let it pervade

every layer of

the being

until it reaches the surface where

it can simply

evaporate

allowing to act

from wisdom

rather than compulsion

where wonder

no longer grows

everything is dead

being in control

is being in power

being trustful

is being in love

love is mending

and fear is falling

apart

when bile is irrigating the thoughts

bitterness sprouts

and a certain kind of hopelessness

grows dense

though

bile

as bitterness

in its harmonious measure

is in the contrary adding depth

to what otherwise stays

plain

recuperating after

an operation

in the areas

of the invisible

is just as essential

for the outcome as

recuperating after

any tangible intervention

cold winds

and blue sky

opening towards

what was

so far

invisible

braving the valley of tears

can take years

of endless crying

yet the subtle art of healing

runs underneath

in a peaceful river

cleansing what seemed

incurable

cicatrising what had been left

as open wounds

sleep as a profound blessing

healing invisible wounds

of invisible insults

bringing peace

and a certain kind of clarity

to what seemed unsolvable

for one more step

to be taken

acknowledging our failures

might set us free

to be

who we truly are

beyond every logic

and calculation

steady falling rain

inside

as well as outside

nourishing what had been left dry

for so long

to let purpose

grow
