Hope

To my friend


During the days of pain and despair,
Sitting along with my fears,
I didn’t  know that you could  appear
And even hear my screams.

How can we talk? We have a different language!
How can we share our thoughts?
I know the answer – we have one advantage.
We’re not afraid to reveal our spots.

Thank you for this opportunity!
Thank you for hours of trust!
Thank you for our nudity!
When I’m with you, I’m not lost.

And after months of calling and crying,
After a lot of insights.
Honestly telling you: “My soul is flying”,
And I can reach any heights!

You are my teacher, my learner and most of all
You are my friend here and now.
We can discuss so much things, I know it’s real.
Also I want to avow.

We have my dream of a people’s community.
We can just start it with us.
Maybe in the future we’ll show this unity,
Spreading our faith as thus.

Yesterday, hearing your energy, words,
I felt the joy and relief.
I love you too, it’s my reward.
Thank you, Louis O’Keeffe.
