Yes... But, who are you?

Hello!

...

Do you hear me, now?

...

Hello?

Yes, but... Who are you?

... You should know it, now.

?

I was waiting for you... Maybe do you know what I mean?

?

Same as you.

... Not sure to understand.

Could you not guess it?

Hum...

Well, I don't have so much time. So... Did you see the sky, tonight?

So dark...

Yes... You are a Traveler: blind to see, lost to find. So then?

Wasn't here any dream, in fact?

The one you pursue...

... Or the one you got?

Now... I can feel its intensity. Gone. Was there a light?

Right! But... What kind?

It was flying so fast... I caught it, kept it... And was gone. Burning as well I felt cold in the deep winter, alone. So old.

But your face looks young, isn't it?

Well, 25 years old, to be precised. Quarter of a century. But... What does it mean? I passed the forbidden zone. Leaving my body. Astonished. Now, NOTHING.

You caught it?

The shooting star?

It was a particular shape to be a star, don't you think?

So true. Where did it go?

Well, name it first! You passed the zone, did you tell. And?

...

You wrote on the wall... Can we eat it? Study it?

Try again!

That's everywhere...

Does it look... like that?

A door... Between light and shadow?

... Speaking on the universal stage a unique language, all around the world?

But, you forgot something in the composition...

Perhaps the essential?

So, if you are lost... Don't you know the word you come from?

It vanished as a dream...

... Where we are staying, admiring, trying to keep it, whatever the way. So unreal!

Society wants citizens as consumers, believing you can get many for free...

... If you assume its policy: will you take one, for aperitif?

Or do you prefer an other, sweeter, for a gift?

Surely, you will find whatever you need!

That's consumerist? But, with a salary, can you feel really hungry?

Just come to love & dream industry: that's necessary, as food for body!

Whatever your age, whatever you are: it guides you to grow up, step by step, in your life!

Being a small child...

... An active teenage,

Or an accomplished adult, go for the final!

I dance to dream, I sing to love, but what kind of program, should I choose to learn?

They are so many, people looking for it:

Confusing, sometimes, the real food they need...

... And staying spectators, to follow principles :(

As if life was based on a guide for all (?)

So... Can you name it, now?

It's something which lights up the night, when nightmares appear,

A place beyond tears, where sun gives a smile to each,

When, in the desert, the poorest pray: "be cloudy, please!"

A place where you hear continually the rhythm,

Of the Earth Mother so long time mistreated,

Keeping you warm when winter is coming,

With a tree house to build better dreams :)

We dress up for fairy tale,

Playing as if it was a game,

The chessboard where the aim,

is to find a letter holding THE secret!

But I have played cards, to read my fortune,

In order to live, what boast the literature,

And it came to me, so deep in my skin,

That I began to do many others myself,

So as to give more to those in the need!

But here I'm, unable to breathe,

Paying the fee of what was, indeed, a trick.

And forced to perceive, that it was just rubbish,

On a road to taste the flavour of defeat (!)

Now, the way is foggy, all around me,

Trying to sign, me too, my own hallmark,

Whereas the surround is closed, on my burning mark.

And I can't hear the words, that the walls are telling (...)

You learn, instantly, "it's not as you think!", hiding some facet, not easy to see,

And that heart, too, needs to be examined!

So, roll up your sleeves, over and over again,

And look! There is something at my feet! Do you know what is it?

Now, I can go to sleep, knowing the magic,

And don't forget to reach what is attending!

Hello the Earth?

?

:)

Here Globe-Trott'"heart"!
