"A Surrender"

With the earth to the rain

That which quelches my thirst for life

I am ripe for you

Like a fruit kissed by the sun
take me now before the autumn comes

please
do not let me spoil
do not wait for others
to find me

those leaves brown and spent
drop silently to the ground

My love

long non sleepfull nights
followed by half sleeps

Like a bulb
in the cold dark ground
my heart squeezing tears from my eyes

such distant memories

such a hope of summer
such warmth to the earth

seeds of hope swell
stirring the soulfull passion

colliding againsts a fading dark

kiss me now

to suck and savour that breath

My heart beats again
