MEETING MOMENT

I see you folding my flower to meet a distant spring
Waiting beyond the ends of the horizon
I see you throwing my sun into your hands
Deciding defiantly to demolish all my beginnings
Leaving me confused in a complete darkness
Inspite of realising that you shine every morning from the pains of my ends
Autumn of the age falls when the warmth of snow exhausts me
Then complains in a whisper of the imminence of my seperation
Life blossoms into a spring dream when snow meets us again
The memory of light hides within me like an eternal volcano
Whose revolutions do not tire me and do not burn my expectations
You stand in the middle of the distance between me and my dreams
Your footsteps are accelerating, longing to meet me
And the sound of my hesitant footsteps takes me far away to see that last scene in your eyes
Here you are defiantly deciding to demolish all my beginnings
When the farthest points of the universe meet
Don’t catch a shadow on the borders of my fear
The pain of your departure from me instills poison blades in my pulse
My map got lost in the night and my fireplace flame went out
On the shrine of the dream, I inscribed the letters of my opening
You pray and pray for me
To come back from being scattered until the beginning of my formation
A spirit blows into my soul, my being screams to be
But you never knew the crack climbed into my soul
Cracks still spring!
Its branches are still intertwined like grains of dust
ing in the arms of tears!
They weave soft mud that forms a path, a horizon,´-or-even a mirage wall
On it rest the branches of a small dream
Branches still intertwined like grains of dust
With tenderness and eagerness, you extend your hands and approach
To fix the position of the shroud that slipped off me at the moment of meeting!!
