2022-2023

Falling out of sequence, will it be back in place
Or should we wait until there is enough of empty space

Either something familiar will happen back to us
Or some new horizons will lay a road to stars

The never ending cycle of what we have and what we had
And nothing is ever enough till our wishes lead to something bad

Outstanding beginnings and heartbreaking endings
What leads us forward and keeps from what is behind

We're moving one direction and the end is foreseen
Towards what awaits and what has always been

We always wait our time to come and realize
That it is already behind and how the past can mesmerize

The never ending cycle of what we have and what we had
And nothing is ever enough till our wishes lead to something bad

sic transit omnia

former child prodigy composer 
who’s been sleeping a minute longer every day
is also pretty good at math 
and knows exactly how long it’s going to take
until the night stretches all over and fills up her place 
like an overblown bubble-gum with the longest lasting taste
and it bums her out although not quite as much as one might think
because 
the best mysteries are always submerged in black ink

the way she sees it 
growing up shouldn’t have to involve
making up for the mistakes she’s made
and by now she would have hoped to be
more composed or at least
a little less afraid

now there’s barely time left to fold her t-shirts and pair the socks
tomorrow is another day after all 
to try and cheat the clocks

her detective talent is wasted on the case
whoever’s to blame left behind no clues
the alarm clock is set
right by her bedside
and the loose ends are untied
just like the laces in her shoes
