Walking II

no crying stone today
no crying cloud, no
crying trees - the bright
fresh wind dried
up the water-springs

the naked emptiness
knows no limits before
God - the spreading space
void at the core
where lie all the pains

busy vans along the road
once upon a time I drove there
with her, going home
once upon a time
it was real, the song

now I strive for silence
the knocking at the heart
like a caller at the door
breathing is all I am for
