Intersection

The silent moment
are the minutes before the dawn comes,
intersection between dark and light.
This time is like
the thin wall between
life and death.
It's a bubble which  breaks
and nobody  can see the traces.
You are completely alone
when you force the last  hindrance.
I wish an angel meets us
behind the gate
and lets us look at a place
where the guns are silent
warriors do not exist
hunger has left
and conflicts worked out.
All of us - the children of the earth -
need such a place.
