Day One

And when I can finally see the front of the castle of love

I bow to it's blinding glory.

I tell my heart to capture what I see

For we will leave the next moment.

The air makes me crave my beloved

Whom I left when I got the chance

When I could easily have had his heart and soul.

I stutter when I tell myself,

Rather it is a command to turn around.

My nerves disobey my stubborn mind,

The moment of truth makes me blind,

to all the practical things in life.

There is no yesterday,

neither a tomorrow.

There is this illusion in front of me

that I need to let go,

I feel my knees shaking.

So instead of choosing right now

I sit at the edge of the cliff

and stare at the unattended loneliness.
