ME: To sail away


Merisatamanranta, Helsinki


In the graveyard of my soul
I bury friends, I once thought having,
but the space is filling up -
no place has left for the ones still living…

All I need is fire –
to shine and burn all of the fears,
to turn in air all of the salty tears.

All I need is wind –
to fill the sails I’ve hoisted long ago,
to sail away, if the gods above allow.
