“The bad news is you’re falling through the air, nothing to hang on to, no parachute. The good news is, there’s no ground.”

The desert has no answer.
"It only asks"
**Berber wisdom**
I am afraid -
not of the darkness,
not of the storm
that breaks through the night.
But of it,
of strange hands coming,
quietly, uninvited,
and try
to extinguish the glow in my eyes -
this wild flickering,
that lets me breathe.
Let me burn,
even if it blinds you.
Let me blaze,
even if it frightens you.
Because I am not a spark,
that can be extinguished -
just a star,
that awakens in its own light.

I am afraid -
not of the fall,
not of the silence,
that sometimes comes.
But of it,
that timid hands
touch my inside
and whisper: *"Don't be so bright. "*
But this light -
it is not a spark,
that can be extinguished,
not a fire,
that consumes.
It is a gentle glow,
that carries me,
a moonbeam,
that cuts through darkness.
Let me shine,
just as I am.
No less,
no more.
