The Rivers of Dreams

By Fatmir Terziu
 

I jump over rivers

In the middle of the night

I walk straight through them

I face the slush the mud

Even though I do not believe my eyes

 

The rivers of dreams

I have set off to rest

Tired, hostage at midnight

I swim continuously and without rest between them.

 

Endless water in my dreams

Rivers that flow endlessly

Then loneliness is combed

Every meditation begins.

 

My rivers never sleep

They have gifted me their attributes

Even in the dark well of night they find me

New roads to challenge.

 

The rivers have been wild for some time

In the my dreams in winter nights

I do not know how to quieten them

Maybe, a return to youthful dreams.
