I enfold your cities
I am, you anxious one.
Do you sense me, ready to break
into being at your touch?
My murmurings surround you like shadowing wings.
Can’t you see me standing before you
cloaked in stillness?...
I am the dream you are dreaming.
When you awaken, I am that wanting:
I grow strong in the beauty you behold.
And with the silence of stars I enfold
your cities in time.
-Rainer Maria Rilke
