Eit kjølig hjarte #2

som ein usynleg pust

svevar Anden over ørkenlandskapet

kjenner dei knuste ruinbyane ved namn

og kjeldene som ikkje lenger gir vatn

flyr over avsvidde skogar,

sletter og fjell

fyller dei tomme katedralane

            med lys

puslar saman attgløymde vrak,

reiser opp det som har falt saman

som ein usynleg pust

kjem Anden med regn over ørkenen

pustar liv i tomme auge,

let gatene fylle med song –

Fasettar av liv

 

Something new

1

there’s a new life awaiting

my decision to trust

the ability to be

recreated 

2

there’s an old voice slumbering

under the glassy surface,

waiting for my feet to stumble

there’s an old voice

with a frightful laughter

filling my ears when I fall

there’s a new voice, mildly encouraging

my faltering attempts

to stand solid

3

it will take years of trust

and a lifetime of hope

it will take all your guts

and demand all your strength

it will crave your heart

from its very core to its utter limits

and you will feel like sinking

and you will feel like flying

and you will be leaded

down unknown roads and distant waters

and all you are and all you have

and all you ever dreamed of

will be replaced

and it will be totally

worth it –



(Fototriss, APED prompt 14)
