"An offering of love"
Like a song sung
In the middle of an empty garden,
A song never heard before,
One morning
When no one is around anymore
You expand.
Like a pair of wings
Rising off the ground,
Into the empty sky,
Losing trace
In the infinite blue
You expand.
Like the pebble
Thrown into the empty lake,
Echoing the mountains
And the forests
When no one is around anymore
You expand.
Like a drop of rain
Taken away by the wind,
Into an empty shell,
Taken away by the sea
Just to be born again
You expand...
And just like the hills,
The fields,
And the flowers
Are finding their voice again
When no one is around anymore
You also ... expand.
