Over the Himalayas (October 2016) - “Sunlight streamed through grumbling storm clouds that played like tiger kittens around the mountain ridges.” ― Jane Wilson-Howarth, A Glimpse of Eternal Snows: A Journey of Love and Loss in the Himalayas

Smile

To undertake
To rebuild 
Permanently
Daily

To undergo
Each and every weakness

To watch 
Helplessly
Each un-hold breath
Each skid of fatigue
Like so many micro fightings
Out of which
We have to recover
Stronger

To extricate oneself
To be in hiding
To shut up
To get lost
To better meet one's self
In the floating of the crowd
Heavy  with its unfathomable rustlings
Dazzling
With its too strong truth

A price to pay
Holding
Its unsustainable breath
A delicate balance
Where chaos and ignorance
would not reign

Grinding
Our childhood dreams
And giving to our adults's fantasies
Illusory honey flavors
Electrical 
Violent
Temporary
And full of doubts
Crashing 
Bruised
Like bright burns
On our silent mouths

Irreversible truths
With solid roots
That our mothers
Haven't taught us

To conjugate
These beautiful inconsistencies
Vibrating
With all their lights
colorful
Blinding
And wild
Disturbing
Revealing

Without losing 
The straight vision
That keeps us anchored to this world

To walk
To dream
Open-eyed
Standing
Sore and worthy

Smiling
In a sweet rest

In a whisper

Looking at your sleeping face
in the morning
