I’ve Been Drowning In That Courage Liquid

1000 meters below common sense. A luminous beginning just before the dimmed end: Escaping one’s own Black-Hole in the last, darkest hour.

Between life and death, swimming, dancing in frozen flames..

The sound is mute, the feeling is absent, but loud voices..

Uninvited caress rashes my skin but I call those soft kisses..

Drifting away, hasting strangers, appealing dangers..

In here nothing shifts but one’s common sense..

I am merely a falling star, awaiting to collapse..

The bottom, the surface, blue zone no forgiveness..

To sink safely or to fly in liquid skies my wishes..

Black-Hole, I’m still blue but left choiceless..

My soul escaped my being, it derails, it fades..

On the compassless aim to find sunken treasures..

No maps for ‘no-go-zones’, an arid wilderness..

I remained trapped in imaginary post traumatic disorders..

Trained to believe the storm is my lighthouse versus..

I pour my heart involuntarily into words, since I found that writing is the ultimate solution for a nightmarish sailing journey. I can still connect with you :)
