[cause and effect]

my time resembles a postman even more now
it follows my footsteps
picks up my past
seals it in envelopes
and delivers it straight into my future

i no longer pray for you
it’s pointless
i simply remember you
i simply write your name
into the fading credits
that are still climbing up the screen
after the movie is over
and all the lights are turned back on

it is pointless

but maybe later
in the very end
when you will be standing in line
in order to get your last ruling
someone up there
up very high
where you can only know
but can never see
will go through dates, pictures and lists
and will think
that this name is vaguely familiar
that it was seen somewhere before
and will say -
let him in

my past will get delivered
into your future
