Talk

do you want me to talk?
just sit next to me,
make yourself comfortable,
rest your mind,
let your thoughts be stable.

Or don’t,
give me ideas,
Wild, endless or meaningless, 
Does it matter?
If we bring it together,
Or let it scatter. 

Let’s talk about life, universe and everything,
Why it is 42 and not anything,
Let’s debate?
Struggle, give up and relate.

Let’s talk about rivers and mountains,
waterfalls and fountains,
May be sip a coffee,
And watch outside the window,
while it rains.

Le t’s talk about people,
Sometimes easy to talk to,
Sometimes unsolvable puzzle,
Why do they run?
Why do they struggle?

Let’s talk about poems,
Telling you simple things,
Locked in word games,
Why do they rhyme?
Can it not or is it a crime?

I can tell you stories,
Take you to uncharted territories,
I can make you fly, swim and walk,
But do you want me to talk?
