The vivacious legacy of my dreams


Thanks to my colleague from the forensic station back in 2010 for creating this wood burning piece in art therapy for me upon my request.


A face of warmth

in the icy voice

that touches the skin

of her blood-red

lips.

Sailing through

sweet temptation and stillness,

she is gardening her feelings,

just to fill and kill

her voice with

immortal weekend

fever.

A pearl of beauty

and a bloom of youth

flow freely within her

breezy voice.

As airy and filmy

as the flicker

of an aromatic

elixir-candle,

her hair is dancing

in the wind

and touching it

groundedly and flightily.

Astonishingly slow

seconds.

A motionless picture

becomes lively and strong

only because of

the imagination of

a fine and distinct

soul.

Keeping hold of

these wonders of charms

that lighten up

the blues in me.

The dream daughter

who will not be born

in this life.

I’m announcing your name

to say good-bye

to my dream

of being your mother

but I’m not leaving you

at all.

Vivien Amalie Stern or

Helena Rosalia Stern

I love you still …
