A heart impression caught and captured
i hear you
set the spiral
into the trembling sail
into a tender wind
translucent or
when your lips touch it
with this lavender flavor
a seduction that never fails
each turn burns your code onto my forehead
for everyone to see
you leave
you don´t leave
you leave
whirlwind, tender little sister
my branch is piercing you
tree-enveloped
i let you
i don´t let you
against the battered horizon
i blow your heart
you threw it after
the bright summer
you gave yourself completely
to the giggling blueflowers in the field
now - leafless and unblooded
we unsettle ourselves
in front of the winter gate.
something like silk
or gauze even
my eye lid brushes along a sleeve
( a wing? only a feather in disguise? )
it was late when you stepped out of your dress
into the gentle vastness
when you started to peel your skin off
and then your flesh
bone by bone towards the end
you scattered them
north, west, hungry south with its mouth wide open -
your smell of raspberries and honey
on my fingertips
for years and years to come.
