As the stars
Queenly stars
hear my howling
yearn to unfold
If only your shine
as on your ceiling
entered the veil I hold
Tidelessly I do wander
through the wold
What could I be if I immersed in?
Would I move on amongst the cold?
The noble stars solemnly enlighten
long devoured sounds
While desiring hands
struggle to tighten
water to a mound
With their eyes so green
they twisted mine
Until the tide will collide with me
and I’ll move on amongst the cold
I know my name.
I know my way.

The Ferryman
Tell me, oh Ferryman
where do you lead me?
Tell me, tempting Ferryman
where do you lead me?
Standing there in front of me
your hands firmly leading me
and I can’t resist
to be hauled down to your boat
Boldest of the righteous ones
where do you lead me?
Boldest of the gentlest ones
where do you lead me?
The banks passed from our sight
boundless, I pine for your sweet caress
I can’t resist to be hauled down to you
Tell me what’s your spell up to?
Seven secret signs
Tell me what’s your spell up to?
Cling to distant lights
Now that we dance upon the waves
beneath the stars
I face myself in you
as I drown in you.

Out of the swamp (I’ll rise)
Calmly I await this ending
while dying seasons seam my feet
wounded at the end of a long journey
through wistful oceans seventeen miles deep
My limbs are aching from clinging on
both that was long dead and tried to breathe
My mouth dumb from devouring rotten apples
beside seventeen corpses I found sleep
Within this blackness I see
While suffocation I breathe
Towards the light I fall
and endless beauty I see.
All my clothes are shredded by the storm
And all my books are mangled by the wind
My feet are buried firmly under the linden tree
And nothing but the trunk I see

zessa
Fading lights did show your wounded hands
sewing with golden leafs this old gown you’ve gathered along the way
circled your unseen crown
None can do you harm
From the shore can’t fire their arms
Enfold that sound that mocks from the abyss
your guise so full of weals. Woven in.
Now it’s time to set it all apart
leave this odd ground behind
You’ll need some space to root your wounds deep in
to reach down the waterside
