Don‘t you wonder how they all were you?

See, the sea is crawling, over these mountain tips far west
and when I go away, to it
I see fiddling with my old hat
playing with the worn out shoes
with all the past faces, lying spread out on the ground

Don‘t you wonder how they all were you?
Fit your face? All once occupied it?
your current one?
every time your skin unravels
a piece of you is gone
and every time your ears are taken by another new, beautiful song
old lining, old skin breaks off, breaks free
leaving you, blank for a moment
allowing for new definition, 
but remembers to never stay long.

    And with the Emerald and brown depth
    Knowledge pervades
    Foreigner walking long, restless paths
    Can refresh their tongues
    In your depth

  • Softness

    How interesting
    That from all
    Words
    Point out to you
    Your beauty
    As if 
    You wouldn‘t hear
    The star‘s music
    Telling you
    And the ground‘s breadth
    & warmth
    Embracing your 
    softness
