I ONLY CLOSE MY EYES


I think of each passing moment,

like the rain from time to time,

drops of water from the sea,

much rain at midnight,

without time to think,

or look at the clock, 

without time to see 

myself in the mirror

child in the rain,

there is only time

to sleep and dream.

For the currents of memory 

to travel through the unconscious,

a journey to inner city,

to that unknown part

where you can not 

reach awake. 

Sleep is like

a train moving

through the forest,

a journey through dark streets,

bridges and hidden corners, 

dazzling mountains,

a city without shadows. 

It is sailing on the open sea 

and waking before the shipwreck,

it is kissing you

and not feeling your lips, 

caressing you

and letting my fingers 

slip into your fullness,

embracing you 

in the void of light.

I like the reality of matter

feeling the sweetness in your lips, 

blossoming the warmth 

of your skin

warming me from the cold, 

when I want to be a time traveler,

I only close my eyes

and dream about you.

Fantastic post. I like your poetry. Every word has its own soul.
Brimming with romance. Enchanting!
