A lonely time
In an abyss, completely broken,
Fear and loneliness my only companions;
You came to search for me.
Afraid to face you,
I ran away as fast as I could;
You still followed me.
Panting and shivering,
I shouted “You won’t understand”;
You hugged me.
Holding my hand and smiling,
You made me take a step;
I cried.
You picked me every time I fell,
Reminded dreams long forgotten;
I started to become me again.
We are near the ground now,
And I will start writing my unfinished song.

I dive in search of words, words that once were the transcript of my ‘zehn’, which now seem to betray me. Is it my demented self that is always at loss of words or a hazy being lost in the maze of chores? I borrow and steal to put together a coherent emotion, but even the emotion...
