the route to self-discovery

Creativity is the route to self-discovery

I want to know

How your skin looks

After you’ve been in the sea,

in the Water.

Which shape the Drops take.

I want to know

how your eyes shines in the dark,

how your hands move in the air,

Would you run to catch a balloon flying in the sky?

Or pretended to be a bird?

I want to know

the way your hair moves in the wind.

Does it like it or does it look like a terrible mistake?

I want to know

Every wrinkles that appear on your face

when you smile.

Not the superficial smile

You give to everybody.

The one that comes from deep within.

I want to know

How your body moves in a large space

and in a tiny one.

How you tuck yourself in bed

When I’m not there.

What goes on in your mind

When distant,

you look far ahead.

And then ask,

Would you float in the sea with me

to see if creatures comes out

of the moon’s reflection?

Would you dance naked in the kitchen

As we cook dinner to see if the food’s taste is different?

Would you spend the whole day

Looking me in the eyes

to see if we can still communicate?

Creativity is going deep within oneself,

Feeling deep, observing deep,

With curiosity, and the openness of a child.

There is so much beauty to be discovered in this world,

There is so much beauty to be discovered by you within you.
