My love
I know it’s been a while.
There was this great sea
between us.
The sea of despair,
with waves of confusion.
We both had beliefs,
that didn’t fit and got in our way.
And yet, I can still feel
your aura.
Like when you walked into my room.
The feeling, the dance
and the whole surrounding.
So incomparably beautiful
and also stupid.
When you think about
how in love we were
and didn’t know what
we were doing from the start.
I know it’s been a long time and I’m writing,
because I can’t get rid of this feeling.
That – there was more.
Even though times have passed,
I have a certain restlessness inside me.
The little head game: “What if?”
And the small fear of having missed something.
Here it is now. My thought.
I gather all my courage.
Clearly against my sense of reason.
Look for me where we once were,
when we confessed our love for each other!
Because I’ve been here for a while,
spending my time with the tides,
with my thoughts by your side.
