There was a time
There was a time we could seat together in a circle on the same floor.
There was a time I could smell the person near to me.
There was a time I could see all the 12 muscles shaping a smile.
There was a time we could feed the trust among us through contact.
There was a time we could tell a story in a circle
and all our breaths were mixing in making sounds and songs.
There was a time we could see each other in quite big groups,
and see all our bodies and share the same air in the same place.
I wish we could come to this time again, without fear, one day, soon.
I wish when it will happen,
we will be grateful for the simple and uncomparable feeling
of touching, smelling, dancing, playing with each other.
