Description
In the beginning I was a chaos
that turned into a storm
that ceased into a wind
which one day took roots
and finally stood still.
In the beginning I prayed in words
but noticed that I can not paint
a new world by speaking
So I started to pray in feelings
to recognise I am finally heard
because it’s only energy
and mere intention that works
in creating meaning for each moment
in searching for places
where I can feel whole
from where I am called back
to always return to love
Living from a soul released
while still living in human form
because I don’t want this kind of beauty
to be ever lost
between verses spoken out by people
who do not hear the trees’ whispered songs
Who learned to contract themselves
and play it small
instead of growing, growing
Just growing strong and tall
