Looking for Secret Knowledge

You know, the most important questions are the hardest to ask.
First of all yourself.
"Where am I going?",
"What is happiness?",
"Is there any reason of my existence?".

Humans live like that reed:
good in spring, much better in summer,
and still quite nice in autumn,
when the reed veins are about to explode
with Eros and carry away the propellers of life.
Do they ask your questions?

I wonder whether the genuine strength in not thinking
of what the mind doesn't embrace, but in acting.
Isn't it better to hug your sweetheart and say:
" Come on baby! Calm down!
Can you hear the hops growing,
the cherry trees being poured with the juice?
Do you see how the Emerald Eye of the Universe looks at us,
tiny specks of stellar matter?

Or maybe it makes sense not to ask
why we fly only in dreams.
Just touch the water with your palm.
Could you feel it like a firmament?
Don't be neither surprised nor scared.
Start walking on it.
You shouldn't even take off your shoes.
Because the water isn't wet at all today.

The most secret is hidden.
But the Gods are still jokers.
They hide it on the most prominent place.
It might be on the nose.
It might be on the head.
They say the secret knowledge is hidden in everyone's heart.
You can find it out.
But only in dreams so far.
