Poems from Nieklaus
You left me
And placed the world in your suitcase
You took the light
The life
Everything I used to like
You left me
Reaching out into...
Everything
Moving in a blur
As if on a drunken stupor
Stumbling with every step
I’m falling
Forgetting which parts of my body
I need to...
Warmth calls upon your name
Summoning you closer with sweet sounds
Clutching your body
hands as soft as silk
Each movement becomes...
Love
Is nothing
But quicksand in the marshes
Entrapping you
With a single step
Pulling you in
Closer and closer
Until your body
No longer...
A bird on a perch
One step
One push
Praying to the lord
Knowing he's about to get hurt
Plunging deeper
Reality disappears
Slipping...
