Questions

Will there be a voice
Crawling, behind all the echoes?
Will there be one warm finger
In the bunch of cold hands?
Will there be a green leaf
On the weary and naked tree?
Will there be a battle
Of fears against hope,
Behind every mother's prayer?
Will there be answers
In plain sight down the road?
Will there be masks
That are better than the souls?
Will there be a rainbow
With seven distinct colours
And no hesitation?
There will be all; all of this;
If you water your thoughts
In the bright sun,
And keep a story, that begins
After the final full-stop.

A Dream

I live and breathe like a misplaced dream In this labyrinthine construct of time; Like a flower that blooms in the wrong garden; Like a kite that soars in the wrong sky. I try to find my place in this maze; Where the horizon is a cerulean haze; Where children are taught how to lie; Where a flightless swallow dreams to fly; Where tears burn the eyes like a pyre; Where simplicity gets butchered by satire; Where justice is just like a starless night; Where compassion is always a lost fight; Where deaths can kindle an endless debate; Where love is defeated by war and hate; Where colours of humans put seasons to shame; Where despair is the prize for the agonizing game. I watch, I cry, and I wish to be born In the distant future; For one day there’ll be A world that cares, a world that dreams; And I will find the right sky for my kite.

The Exoneration of Heidi Schäfer

In the shadows of a dead city she stood And waited for the sun to go down. Heidi had been a daughter, a wife, a mother, But never Heidi. She watched the remnants of a long forgotten song Lancing towards her from the medallion above And her heart looked for the listener; The one who had listened to all her prayers. "Now that my road has come to its end, Show me where I can wash these stains Off my broken skin," Heidi whispered When she found the listener, Playing his flute under an ageless tree. "You've come a long way, Heidi," he said, "You were too cautious not to fall, Which made you forget that you could fly." Heidi watched the hills falling in love with The abstrusity in the melodies he wove And said, "The hills look like a dream." "Yes, but a dream you chose to bury, Under the weight of your sins," he said. "You have been all, Heidi - You have been a seed, a plant and a tree But you never danced wit...

Why couldn't I be like that? A little boy, playing in the sun And chasing butterflies...? Knew I shall grow up one day Like everybody else And I feared the sun would stop Smiling back at me... Why do children grow up? Is it necessary to learn to lie? To fake smiles, to wear masks? To get lost in the rigmaroles That life offers aplenty? To hear about 'being a good person' And not being one, but still growing up? To write songs about love And lend them to the most undeserving? To consider your mother a burden Whose absence had once meant darkness? I'm the greediest person in the world 'Cause I wish to have the biggest treasure.... The days that sped way too fast... I want to lose balance and fall From my little bicycle again.... I want my father to bear my weight On his shoulders, singing unmelodious songs I wish to get awed staring at the rainbows Instead of knowing every scientific explanation I wish to fall, g...
