Spirits Carry Me Away
coffee in prague
beautiful scenes
and beautiful people
isolation
i seek
amongst
crowded streets
spirits speak to me
all me to corners
and to the rivers
and to the bridges
into the cathedrals
run with the wind
fly with the birds
soar through the time
get lost and high
in a dance with
cheap cigarettes
and coffee
and sugar
i induldge
and i find the other side
of life
inside
out
outside
in and now
i must leave my
corner
where i stare
at surreal art
on a wall
and think
deep thoughts
and ponder
the sky
and the sea
and dream
of a million things
i can do and create
and be
and now
i will wander
to a bridge
to walk
to think
to dream
to conceptualize
i dream of roaming
the world
and making music
with no strings
no things
to hold me
back or hold me
down
in Prague
i find
myself
in searching
through
spirits
and wandering
haunted
castles
and streets
filled with
memories
of lovers
and dreamers
like me
who got lost
between
heaven
and here
heaven brings me here
to give me wings
to fly over
the city
that confine me
to find the other side
of dreams
and life
and things to be
and i feel so alive
when i am alone
wondering the streets
of cobble stones
i don’t want anyone here
with me
unless i am let
free
no chains
no cages let me
dream
let me fly
let me soar
i go to saint charles bridge
to catch a wave
of spirits
to carry me
through the stories
the streets speak to me
connected to a new reality
where i am free
