‘Ortu,

I Sit and wait……

This symphony I hear in a stream

wandering down earth’s path.

No hymn follows my vein

while I linger with words

for a willow of thoughts.

I Am lost as I wait….

To feel or not to feel?

Of these questions I occur my heart

and I wonder hopeless throughout my part.

The waves of mother’s sea

has spoken to me.

I rise as I fall…

Take me away from these

thoughts of emperor

as I rise I choose to fall

for there is none to feel.

The only enemy there is

is the one in me….

    • Hey Nebula, hoe gaat het met je? Ik weet niet wie zij is, maar het begin opeens…..

      “thoughts of Emperor” at that moment I was not in the ready to be strong, to fight, to be an emperor! Something in me was, but I wasn’t really. So that’s why to feel or not to feel.

      It took me some time to understand myself, but more and more I get who I am supposed to be 🙈🤭❤️ just finding my way to express all of that!

      • Amen. I often wish I was nocturnal. I could spend my days living and my nights creating; but you are right. We can manage. There is always enough time for the important things.
