Silent Mystery

The night embraces the city

Veils misty silhouettes

Distorts the view

We walk through the streets

in desperate search for a home:

the cold air enfolds us

freezes to the bone

strips all memories that were here

a moment ago

The feeling comes and goes away

We live lives of other people

Here in the dark

Where we are unseen

In silent mystery

Occasional smiles

Occasional rituals

We live through these days

not knowing faith

and daylight

Mirrors are all dark

as the days pass in the mist

of the night
