ELIXIR OF THE INVISIBLE EARTH
(Return)
We tear off pieces of the earth
we crush them beneath rough feet
as if we do not know
that we are stepping on our own beginnings
Forgive me for writing again
I sell dreams
to myself
and to you
In my mind I cook a dense transparent substance
a gelatin of memory and premonition
to carry to you
the bitterness of time
Are we ready
to look at life without a veil
are we ready
to offer it a hand
not as masters
but as passersby
We are particles
flickers within infinity
floating energy
that for a moment knows it breathes
Life does not ask for mystery
it does not ask for answers
it asks for bread in the hand
for water that remembers its source
and for a touch that does not give up
It asks us
to stitch the wounds
we have opened ourselves
On the stage of the world
the drums of time resound
light breaks returns disappears
a cycle that does not ask us
And at the edge of that cycle
stands Veles
in the roots of the world and the silence of the soil
listening to how we break our own earth
Above him Perun
in light and thunder
slashes the sky
seeking the balance we lose
And we
drained clouds
wander above ourselves
in a balance that threatens
Tomorrow
Let tomorrow be a silence
that does not hurt
Let thoughts calm
if only for a single breath
On the wall a painting
cherries bursting with life
red fragrant
almost real
That is it
that energy
the elixir
Reset
Perhaps then we will know how to choose
peace instead of noise
an embrace instead of distance
a morning at the table
where children breathe without fear
We will listen to flowers
speaking without words
We will join the torn earth
with hands soaked in tears
We will strengthen the light
where we once dimmed it
Because it is enough
to awaken
to stop
and to see
To offer our hands
to thank the invisible plan
that still holds us
And when one day
time stands still for all of us
when in a boundless flower garden
we dance lighter than ourselves
perhaps then
we will become human
You
and I
But before that
we must return life to life
for the child
for the human
for what is yet to come
Because after
only silence remains
if we have not known how to love
I awaken in the crown of light
and offer warmth
to the world
