A simple wish

A simple wish, really

nothing much

nowhere far

no crazy place

a simple, domestic idea, I guess.

A small boat, really

nothing much

nowhere far

not for too long

a single day, I guess.

A solo excursion, really

nothing much

nowhere far

just a day on the water

all by myself

my and my thoughts, I guess.

Peaceful quiet

silent solidarity

all I really wish for, really

a simple wish

of a small boat

just a solo excursion

one sunny day

when the water sparkles and shines and gleams

with just me and my thoughts, I guess.

  • The rain

    The rain scares me

    intimidates me

    loud and imposing and looming

    often arriving with thunder

    lightning

    sometimes power outages

     

    The rain comforts me

    soft drizzles rinsing out the hardships

  • Safe space

    My virtual home

    where I can make my words dance and no one can change the choreography

    where I can be loved by other people like me

    where I can realize that I'm not as alone in the world as I originally thought

  • Walking home

    This is when all my thoughts merge

    into one big cloud

    chasing me everywhere

    demanding things

    this is when I answer

    when I walk home

    when I contemplate reality

    life

    existence in general
