TWO ROCKS, March 2023
We are two rocks
Entwined and still
By the edge of the sea
Everything we know in this world will disappear one day
But we will stay here, like this…
Mountains will go,
Seas will go,
Days will go
Nights will go…
But we will remain here
Flowers will go,
Colors will go,
Birds will go,
Sounds will go
You and I will remain like two rocks, entwined at the water’s edge.
Everything we know will go
Close your eyes now
It is quiet here now
…
…
…
…
…
And then, when nothing’s left in this world but air
We too will be ready to go
We will take that last bit of air in slowly with one deep breath
And let it seep into every hollow
We will loosen and crumble into sand slowly
So slowly,
Sooo s l o w l y…
We will begin to flow into salt water
Turning to glittering grains of sand and merge with the vast sea
One by one…
Gently…
Sparkling….
