crystal clear

there are times

where

what we say

is not clear

though

there are also times

where

what we say

is crystal clear

and it is the person

in front of us

who is unable

to hear

then the challenge might be

not to let

the confusion

of our neighbour

become

the truth of our life

hasty

learning to trust

that everything happens

for a reason

without jumping

to hasty conclusions

to make ends meet

which do not belong

together

can be

a rather delightful game

once the confidence

has settled

beautiful

while looking for

recognition

we might forget

how

love is

endlessly

irrigating

the fields of our heart

when only we stay faithful

to what is true

and good

and beautiful

break open

when loss

is what

breaks us open

towards

other dimensions

it is still loss

and loss can be

painful

to live

surreal

having been

bound

by a spell

being liberated

can feel

almost surreal

and the challenge

to tell the tale

truthfully

essential

awaiting

no longer to await

the future

in fear of the past

but living the present

as a

fulfilment of

the past

and a promise for

the future

healing

what was

by living what is

and receiving what comes

graciously

glittering

glittering water

and a golden horizon

opening broader

and broader

towards

mercy

where guilt

had reigned

aware

becoming aware

there is a choice

to be made

between guilt

and mercy

and being given

the freedom

to choose

anchor point

ending

a whole long life

of submission

to guilt

can feel

slightly

disorientating

until mercy has

settled

in its anchor point

revered

when the confusion

of feeling

misunderstood

is anew

stirring the heart

only to emphasise

how

there is a time

to talk

a time to keep quiet

a time

to listen

there is indeed

a time

for everything

yet when the time is not revered

confusion occurs
