Mela Koteluk - Staccato

Water and shore,
shores and forest,
forests and a house standing alone.

Window and table,
kitchen and counter,
you sit, and your gaze drifts away.

Heart like a forest, like a forest.
From the noise of cities - offline.

I entrust you with staccato thoughts,
you turn them into a scarf or a bridge.

Look, many rivers reverse their course
and flow from the seas, to the sources, to the mountains.

Free like a bird, like a bird.
Heart like a forest - offline.

Light and shadow,
love and fear,
metal and down,
tree and thorn.

Calm or storm,
sky or roof.
I entrust you with everything I have.

Heart like a forest, like a forest.
Free like a bird - offline.

There were also days,
when the world seemed unbearably dreamt, you know.
There were also days,
when the stars didn't twinkle.

Where everything and nothing
- in one bite.

Where cosmic dust
- in one bite.
