Walk alone

I like to walk alone
Against the sun
In the snow
Floating clouds
Fancying forms
Sinking soles
Tracing trails

O darling! Turn around
You've come a long way
The shadows are softer now
There's a new story
Mirroring in your eyes

Hold my hand he said
I withdrew in doubt
Touch my soul he said
I blew at his face

I like to walk alone
Against the sun
In the snow

Walk with me
If you will
Be the sun
Behind the cloud
Be the snow
Falling from the sky
Give me ground to walk on
Melt in my heart
Night n' day
Be with me
And keep me warm
But don't take my name
Make no sound at all
Because I like to walk alone






After a break

Words crawled under my skin
Openly daring my fingertips
I shied away
There was no keyboard
No open document
To record the rhythm
The mind - an endless maze
Of faceless beauty and 
Timeless wisdom 
Caught in thoughts 
Running in circles
Daunted I was
By the task of finding words
Loosely hanging 
Of plucking and pruning 'em
To the euphonic beat of the nib
