It's not the mind that rules
Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)
Wind brings to us
One last breath of sun
If we can pass
If we only could passs
Sun would shine just for us
Even birds would whisper in our ears
If we could pass our life lines wouldn't disappear
Like we never existed, but will we pass
We must be fast
Already so close, yet so far
All our weaknesses we'll put in a jar
And close it with one word
If we could pass this bridge , to Lord
To our master , to our heart
If we could pass this one last guard
What a pity, we are fools
We can't pass till he rules
