Inside the mind of a Cherry Blossom Tree

 

by Nathaly M.

 

Today

today i am going to recover, to bring back

the what that i was, i used to be

at a certain day week year

and time.

 

The cold wind soothes my skin through the window, makes my teeth shake, the cold wind upon my virgin body.

 

Unstained ?

 

Every moment i loose myself, the colors

of my memories of the world die

And start to turn gray.

When my dictionary does not know the meaning

Of motivation, of what's the purpose?

The worst thing that can happen to my fingers,

is to touch, and touch again and find only air,

just space, between myself and the Earth.

But i am touching, and i am 

 

Here?

 

Today

today i am fighting to create

with the miracle that is Life

a natural hint of Art.

 

Of the green grass, that runs across the fields,

not to be part of.

Of the green grass, disseminated across the mountains, all the same,

not to be part of.

Not to part from contour of the rocks, of the mountains, the fields,

like the green grass that runs across the fields,

disseminated across the mountains,

limited to the contour of the rocks,

of the mountains,

the fields.

 

A Cherry Blossom Tree. 

Mystic, magnetic, chaotic

A Cherry Blossom Tree.

 

Keep me, and I will burn.

But, set me free, and I will perish.

 

 

In my life,

Where ship's go around the world carrying drunken pirates' stories

and little kids' joys.

 

Keep me, and I will burn.

-I'll Rain, of my flowers

I like the view.

Set me free, and perish will I.

-Holding tight against the ground,

my roots crawl,

my flowers send I away from me,

so that they may fly. 

 

A Cherry Blossom Tree. 

Mystic, magnetic, chaotic 

A Cherry Blossom Tree.

 

To be what I used to be, I am

at a certain day week year

time,

Creating magic through a natural hint of art.
