I never felt something so strong
as a man standing before me
A body, nothing else
than an empty body in the crowd of life
but his eyes’re still there
look at him
The dead man with the eyes still opened
still breathing air through his eyelashes
staring at his life
but I could hear his heartbeat
Stood on a bridge looking at me
and I was the sea
I was the water
carried him along when he jumped
if he ever really did
- like an arrow through my heart -
And I was afraid:
I was alive
Those eyes were dead
he was alive
the dead man
Had come alive again
said: 'this is not the first time
and it will not be the last
and stopped breathing
the dead man
was alive again
