Will You?

Will you give me the freedom
To face the cold alone
Yet share your warmth
When I reach out to you?

When I return shivering
Unable to say anything

And wrap yourself around?

With my hair scattered
And my vision blurred
Bare feet on the ground
Will you still hold me close?

And will you do it
Again and again...

Like a towel after a winter bath?

I wanted small stones to stand as houses as well. I wanted small stones to be recognised. I wanted small stones to be cheered. And I didn’t see why not, we had the capability to stand firmly and bear each other’s weight. We were all stones of the same earth, some big, some small. I went around finding stones of my kind, some stones with the same hidden desire, some stones in which i aroused the desire but nevertheless, we were all small stones with a big dream.
