there are times in a life
when we’re forced to go deeper
deeper below to find stable ground
below all the water
there is landmass that holds us
in place
and connects us to every man’s land

The River Is Yours
there’s no need to wave to the shore to get rescued
there’s no need to swim – there’s nowhere to go!
the turbulent whitewash is caused by your arm-strokes
your kicking creating the currents below
The Days Of Humanity
we are
each of us
but a day
only. one. day.
Songs To Be Sung, And To Die For
we search for purpose – our song
but what if it’s not our purpose we need to find
but the pain inside that goes so deep
we cannot but sing as it kills us
Building An Ark
when we surrender to being artists at the mercy of creation
we can find compassion towards the hard sacrifices
compassion towards the obstacles – stuckness, unproductivity, indecisiveness
for it’s not about the destination
it’s about the uncompromisable truth
in a world where that seems out of fashion…
A Promise To Bloom
A flower in my heart
Is whispering
Softly
Softly
That if I only dare to water it
And let the sun in
It promises to open and bloom
The Treasure Hunt
Over and over again I remember, and then forget
Forget and try to get a head start by assuming the direction
Because I feel left behind
Because I feel judged and judge myself
Because I feel I’m wasting time, waiting patiently instead of running
Patience is no longer taught as a virtue
Action is the virtue in our world
Impatient minds dictating the values
Impatient minds that are sometimes lucky, accidentally running in the right direction
