THE UMBILICAL CORD
Far away
Beyond the Sun
I
hear the aching beats
Of a
broken heart
The
umbilical cord has ripped apart
Scattered through the desert
the
milky drops are glittering
In
your trail your abandoned „baby “
is
crawling and howling
Remained but an empty
Sandy
nest
Now
the time has come to rest
All
things now cried bitterly
to
standstill brought the Infinity
Weathered I wandered
Entwined in torment it was mine to face
I
would resurrect in your embrace
