I am, I am, I am
You are outside, No dog in sight and the wind is sweeping the quarter
The rain increases and violates the safe and known alleys and streets you just walked through. Push back!
Along the market street a strip of store lights glowing
Sparkling, staring at the ground
And you, lost and dilapidated, impassable and dissipated, facing a fortified wall. Push back, this moment!
A limited number of heartbeats
You feel like the “loneliest nobody “in the world
Push back! Now you’re swimming against the current
Seashells on the sand, moaning softly an ode the waves: “Go on”
Marble town on a hill
Pace softly in the shade of the cedar tree
Come; Plant oneself, between the Daphne and the graves
The arena is filled with empty chairs, the lights are on but theres no one on the stage
The ceiling is all cracks, the floor is full of dust, you try to find a door in this maze
Oh Mother! Please take me under your wing! She said:
“You’re not the only one swimming against the current”
Go! The ground will carry on shaking, it’s pouring down, no fear my dear, your train needs to crash ‘cause you, lost and dilapidated, impassable and dissipated, facing a fortified brick wall..
You have a limited number of heartbeats
Marble town on a hill
Pace softly in the shade of the cedar tree
Come; Plant oneself, between the Daphne and the graves
Now you’re swimming against the current
A drop of morning dew shaking, dancing on a tip of a leaf
Abandoned and defenseless like a shore after a raging storm
Marble town on a hill
Come, Plant oneself
Seashells on the sand
