Blurry Copenhagen…

img_20170211_014832_079

 

First rays of sun, the blinds

stayed open all night

hoping for light to get in.

 

The morning sets, slowly

but surely,

Washing away the night’s sorrow of leaving…

 

Soon, so very soon.

 

It is Copenhagen silent

just now, as I

long to hear that call in the dawn…

 

Stay, don’t go away!

 

“I can’t” I would say

Heartbroken, and defeated

by fate. But,

In my heart, I’d think

“I found a reason,

the reason to fight dullness.”

 

Everything stands still

except a whisper in

the cold cold wind,

“Farewell”, it murmurs

And the dried up vines just

shake their dried leaves

approving.

 

I walk passed

the sleepy bicycles, stacked

to warm each other

waiting to go

somewhere else.

 

The smell of fresh bakery

The sound of the city

awakening.

 

“Wait!”

I thought I heard…

“Wait!”

But I only turned

To see my own shadow blend

leaking in the paved road’s crack…

 

Teary eyes making

the last sights a little blurry

Leaving yet another piece

of me in the hands of the City…

 

Until next time, maybe…

  1. I hope you’re having a fantastic time on your trip, Cyranny! I hate so much that it has to end.

    My favorite imagery from your poem:

    “the sleepy bicycles, stacked
    to warm each other
    waiting to go
    somewhere else.”

    Very nice. 🙂

  2. sometimes our own shadow is the only thing that sees us, understands us, touches us – everything else is apart, distant, separable, discrete … our shadow knows us like nothing else can …
