Coffee


“What do you want?”

I wondered, as I looked
right at the question.

I thought of many things
they never put on the menu.

like a job, a truck,
food, always more food,
a little gas money, an expensive guitar,
more open roads, less speed limits.

freedom.

time.

things they can’t give me.

“By the way, I like your hair.”

I’d rather take coffee than
compliments right now, I thought
to myself.

Just coffee, I replied.

“And how would you like it?”

Black – like my soul.

Food


I decided one time
not long ago
that I’ll keep running
no matter who comes and go
but few miles in
and I found myself
running out of water,
food and breath.

shit.

I supported my arms on
my shaking legs and
looked down at my worn-out
shoes. they were
barely breathing, like
unconscious soldiers on
a battlefield.
how great it was to see them
being one with
my breath.

what a love story. what a tragic death.

so I stopped, and
looked around and
asked myself,
what do you do when you’re
hungry, and you can’t find
a restaurant?

you make your own damn food.

Be Like That!


Wake up every day in a new place,

Breathing in the exotic scents,

Each day will be my favorite,

Seeing the sunrise and its essence,

Camping in the desert with old friends,

Climbing up the snow-covered peaks,

Making the way through running waters,

I wish that would be me…

If I could be like that,

I’d give anything for that,

No matter where it would take me,

Wish I could be like that…

Taste every food on the map,

Strike every chord and run to the touchdown,

Hit it hard until we go up,

Who cares if we ever come down!

Be with the love of my life,

Every evening is a new date,

Then I can be perfectly sure,

For next day I’ll surely wait…

If I could be like that,

I’d give anything for that,

No matter where it would lead me,

If only I could be like that…
