New One
Treble
Flipping through hearts
No flame to touch
Except the holiest of hope
Pure light nourishes
The branches flipping alight
With frequent tips in season
Of the son
Little shards strike my foot
Again, but
Before long gone
I don't want to die here
Immortal is the soul
They say in Heaven
As only the holy know
Trust oh sacred tree
Bear not this premonition
This touch is like a cool breeze
To the spirit, to the whole of me
Sleeping beauties before me
Matter so much more
Nostalgia is a cup I cannot drink
I'd rather lift my head up

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
