Dream

I fled from the darkness with my eyes,
I escaped from the deafness with my words,
A scream in my throat, but there is no reason
For it not to turn into ash between us.

I searched for a fire that does not burn,
I begged for rain where everything is dry.
Dream! You are the only one who holds me,
When my whole life feels like a stranger to me.

You lead me through ice and thickets,
Like a song the heart hears in a dream.
Everyone said: fleeing is a sign of defeat.
But within me, unfold your wings.

For when the earth cracks beneath the song,
And words do not reach the people,
You are the only one who becomes a prophetess,
Leading the soul out from under the shadows.

You will not go out, even when I betray.
You will not break, no matter how I fall.
You are not an escape. You are my courage.
You are the world where I found my Home.
