you bury your head in the desert

There are
Days when your energy overflows
And you want to kiss everyone you meet
In the street.
At other times, you can hardly
Get out of your bed for breakfast.
Some days , you get out in the crowd
And show off your looks.
Other times, you bury your head
In the desert and snore. –
Some days you give off sweet colors.
Other times, you settle for black
And white -
Leave all this struggle behind.
Start life not from where you’ve left
But from Zero.
Look how the wild animals
Snuggle with the forest.
Begin love affair with the one
Who can turn your arms
Into wings of flame.
The one who can transform your lips
Into fresh bay leaves;
Your eyes into ever-burning lamps
And your heart into a brilliant sun.
