I Am A Shaman

For my new friend, Maille.

I told someone the truth,

 

About my gift,

 

The one that made me,

 

How you say?

 

Strong, strong enough to go on.

 

Life isn’t a dream,

 

Yet shamans have a special power,

 

Of reconnecting distant lovers,

 

Telling of forever,

 

Making you believe,

 

That life is made in dreams,

 

Where we can see,

 

That our feelings aren’t in vain.
