the cure
just when that flickering light was sufficiently confined
and I had nestled in a comfortably dusky seclusion (not loneliness)
where my shame was invisible (at least to others) …
so just when I thought I found peace (or rather meditated on acceptance)
and had felt nothing but relief because I have relieved myself
of all these things that lead to desire leads to hope …
no, just when I´d made of pain a memory, rapidly fading together
with something else (not the thrill), I was not sure anymore
if I ever was really hurt (but I have and might still) …
but then, just when I thought there was – finally – no more fear,
no more reason, no care -
you ignite the night.
