Ceslovas Cesnakevicius

buildings are falling down
the beginning of time
like the end of time
like the waterfall of time
like a sweet caress
unlike anything
feeling good can be so so so complicated
then you wake up one morning
and it is impossible
only the smallest things
can change everything
a sane man has to wonder
what ever really was whatever
love comes and goes
incredible
but love comes and goes
certainty
after years of keeping to themselves
after years
while we negotiated with substance
sometimes even up to our ankles
under our fingernails
the stars! the stars linked their hands up
the stars looked back down in our uneven bowls
they understood the way it was for us
and consented to let us take part in the dancing
nobody was ready
but that changed in the instant you let me kiss your face
our feet found assurance by simply going forward
like so many tiny stars
do you remember how they laughed?
and the sun only returned languorously for the rest of that summer
