Something I wrote after dreaming of listening to a muted chorale.

I saw with my own two eyes

But didn’t hear

The sweet sound of the chorale singing

Even if I take a step closer

Still, in mute they stay

And so I started to wonder

If I have gone deaf from disbelieving

That someone like You is still existing

Have I truly lost my faith?

Or was it just another test of fate?

Still I sat in awe watching

Even if I could not hear them singing

I close my eyes in deep reverie

And started breathing deeply

 

An angel’s hand I saw

Reaching out for me

I tried to grab it

But could not reach it

In frustration

I stammered and cried

Crying out loud

Why am I not allowed?

Trapped

I stayed in a world of grief

Ensnared

In a box of fear

of disbelief
