Small fishes in shoals

The bus rolls down the highway road.
Small fishes in shoals
travelling through my belly, my chest, my throat.

Your ruthless sun burns my skin.
It pierces through the pale glass
of the window, while the wheels just spin
and my mind tries to run
further away
from your bright bright sun.

But I can't. I just can't.
And I try.
And I fight the light.
But I can't pass
the way the fields, the trees and the clouds
do pass me.

I saw you
standing on the corridor.
You pushed me away, little fool,
with your gaze.

And so I walked out of the door.
And I entered another space.
Another presence.
With all of you essence
sparkling, shining inside of me.
Making the small fishes do their dance
in my belly, my chest, my throat.

And it hurts.
It hurts so much.
And it warms my soul.
And everything else just keeps on passing
in this lifetime role.
