Moment…

written by: Mitch Bensel

@MitchRambling

a moment I fell inside
a soul
drinking from its waters
devouring the pleasure
my eyes slammed shut to whisper
remember

only a moment was spent
filling my heart
with the soft air
covered with flowing
liquid..heated
love

every soul has it…
only a few let you inside
to inhale

Shadows of New York by Francisco Bravo Cabrera

One day I sat and listened to the choirs of Babel.
It took me back to when I painted shadows in New York
which cast skyscrapers high above your garden.
And I wondered if an island, in the seas of nowhere,
would have served as shelter if our ship should sink.

Did a siren with her song lead you so far away from home,
and has that made you forget me?
Have you removed the old tattoos?
Did you forget the sailing trips?
Was it because Manhattan’s winds destroyed your jib?...
