It’s not a challenge
It’s a game we play
The livingroom door is behind me
As a supporter
As a defender
The balcony door stands between me and the howling wind
It’s like a melody
That the air creates
Between door and door
It’s all but a melody
When you are out there
On the other side of the balcony door
But I’m not thinking about other people in this moment
Because this is personal
Only between me and the wind
The balcony door appears like a paper wall
It seems just about to fall
Architecture is at stake
And what I do is what I make
I’m sitting peacefully to write
I know I do this always right
Because my mood brightens every time
When I use my pen to paper right in the middle of a crime
That means in the centre of this storm
That is wonderfully in form
Whistling a melody with me
That I can sleep in to agree
Those are the dreams of generations made of
But no-one really dreams any more
Except me
Dreaming the melody
The whistling melody of the wind
No-one dares to get this hint
Because nightmares are supposed to be brighter
Making their narrow minds only tighter
While I enjoy the dance into the eye of the storm
With my windy melody on my lips
Until I drift
Into one parallel universe of our existence.
