i am like the sea

i am

like the sea,

always true to myself

a bird

a bird

a bird

fresh paint on its wings

whistled to me

in the forest of magic

i heard laughter

i followed

lost my way

no hand to hold

my fear

waited in shadows,

my desire

jumped out of emerald lakes,

crocodiles

i met

myself in a corner

smiling at me

i met an old man

who told me:

it's all in the mind

then

i forgot.

now

i am awake

in a void

to be reborn

and i shall do it myself,

walk and smile at birds

i tasted the darkness

i tasted

i tasted the darkness

of my heart

and i tasted your darkness

in your absence

i don't know

where we will end

i hardly know

where i walk

come spread

colours with your hands

show me this flow,

rivers of blood, of joy

paint clouds

pierced by 

strength, shadows

around courage

and protect my heart

in the garden of mysteries.

i will show you

a song at night

i create tides

to make you rest

and smiles

to keep you warm

i asked a bird

to take my wishes

across the sea

and i walk in sun

i am just here

long long ago wounded

i am here

and i smile

i am here
