My dear heart

Oh my dear heart
How much I make you travel
Forward, backwards in time,
Shedding love
Wherever you go,
Wanting to stay everywhere
And staying nowhere,
Giving yourself to everyone
And collecting love
From every heart you touch.
Nearness and distance,
Twisting and twitching,
Close and detached.

Shall we ever,
Ever be able to stay put,
Rest and relax?
Or are these gymnastics
Just a mere training
For this ever changing life?

Let's take it slow.
Let's keep it calm.
Wherever we are
One experience at a time.
Showers of tears
From time to time
Just keep you wet and well alive.

I love you too
My dear heart.
