OCEANS
I am painting you
This is night sky
You are a poem, remember
I am you, I am you
Click a picture,
Black and white
We will tell stories
You and I
But you are me
Have you heard of magic?
The picture is blur
Only half of my hand
That I raised to dance
To a different music
I know you, I know you
Take this rope
Climb up to the moon
Or pull it
Like you pulled me
If you like
I will give you
A part of my earth
Give me a part of your sky
I have picked up dead dragonflies
Walking by the riverside
I have wings, no flight
Take me
I am a feather now
You are me, I am you
This night is a lie
Like every other night
Deep dark lie that I have told you
You are not a sad story
Darling, remember
These are not dark colors
Look at the picture again
A wire against my eyes
My hair is messy
Funny little picture, isn’t it?
I smile
I can hear music, coming
From the photograph
The camera is broken
Pieces by the wall
I open my fist
To throw away dragonflies
We are in a garden
No trees, no flowers
I am becoming you
With every step you move
Towards the ocean, listen
I am becoming you
I was lost
Lost for ever
Walk up to me, walk
I am at the shore now
The ocean was deep
I danced raising my hand
Everyday
In the deep gorges and canyons
Of the ocean floor
I could see everything
Like a man
Sitting on the tallest mountain
I was all what the ocean had
I was what the ocean was
But today is different
I am leaving the ocean
The water runs dry
From my skin
Like clouds rushing towards the sky
I can't move, I can’t move
You are walking up to me
Take me
I whisper again into the sea shells
Take me
Before the earth cracks open again
And all the dead dragonflies
Throw their wings at me
Bring your piece of sky
Take my earth
And let me become
What I should have already been
Alive!
I am you, you are me
Here, today, death meets life
I am leaving the ocean
Our ocean
I am smiling
Remember, the night is a lie.
