The Katydid

A katydid comes inside my
living room and speaks:

‘I’m here to bring a message
to the girl curled up on the couch
with tears on her cheeks
and a pained heart
because of the longing
for her beloved
and the tough journey
they are on

Girl, do you see my lightness
with which I hop around?
This is the lightness that again
you need to find
You need to surrender
even deeper and more
And let go of control
Leap forward in faith
over any obstacle in your mind
Attune to your intuition
Just like me you have the ability
to jump across time and space
and to cross worlds
Leap even more in trust
in your true love’

I wanted to thank the katydid
but when I blinked,
it was gone
