Tankespor #1

TANKESPOR
Nogle tanker driver let forbi,
som sæbebobler i luften,
dukker op et øjeblik,
glitrer
og forsvinder igen.
Andre sætter sig dybere,
snor sig ind under huden
og holder os vågne lidt længere end ønsket.
De kommer i bølger,
i cirkler,
igen og igen.
Men måske er de alle blot det —
tanker.
Bevægelser gennem sindet,
som langsomt mister deres tyngde,
når vi lader dem passere videre.

THOUGHT TRACES
Some thoughts drift lightly past,
like soap bubbles in the air,
appearing for a moment,
glimmering
before disappearing again.
Others settle more deeply,
curling beneath the skin
and keeping us awake a little longer than we wish.
They come in waves,
in circles,
again and again.
But perhaps they are only that —
thoughts.
Movements passing through the mind,
slowly losing their weight
when we allow them to drift on.
