Temporary – Wedding poem for the month of June 2026

“tijdelijk” comes from the collection “Maria in gedachten” from 2025.

temporary

The lungs are wheezing
this is about
with medication rest
time for more
to think.
to see myself

Be aware
time devours
once the moment
That's surprisingly faster
can come

Get me ready
to say goodbye
of this earthly
to thank friends
To give everything away
trust is increasing

It is longing
to go away
Maria to meet permanently
in an unknown context
wait a moment
temporarily is stretchable
