How could I Let go When If I take a step I will leave My prints behind And you will follow me, You will follow me until I stumble and fall And crack my head open The blood slowly flowing Out of my body As I try to fight you Punch you in the groin Make you leave me alone How could I stop To smell the flowers When if I wonder You take me by surprise Grabbing me by the neck As I gasp for air And I see nothing but darkness Nothing but the things I Did not do Did not remember Did not achieve How could I get rest When if I dream You take advantage of me And paint the thoughts And images in my head Black, black as a crow And it exhausts me a big deal And as I try to wake up You shut my eyelids, Pin me down And make me watch.

Dear Mr. Anxiety
A cup of coffee so hot it burns my tongue. I like it, gives a kick An opened book on Freud laid out on the table so I’d seem More cultured, educated A joint in my hand as I inhale the smoke with the petrichor sneaking in from outside A sense of calmness in this chaotic world somehow soothes me

Calmness comes After The rain
A big house is a lovely house, a rich house, a warm house. A beautiful woman is a cherished woman, a clean woman, a noble woman. Both radiate: her skin glows, its columns shine and the windows, oh so clean. Try and look inside you can't Can you? take a peek. As though its windows are clean and her smile is inviting, you can only gaze at the exterior for when you get through the gate, the skin The interior is not so glamorous.

Exterior vs interiorr
A confetti Ones may say Even when the sun is down She can light up the day Clear like water Beautiful like the sky living in utter Dreamlike delight Yet when reality comes Dark clouds creep in And weakness in her bones Wind blows Confetti goes And emptiness comes to life And, somehow That loved and loving girl Can love anyone but Herself

Confetti
To The smell To The drill To The simplicity I adapt Quickly, No thought It Fills up my veins With warmth State of longing But For what? For Those few seconds Of difference, change The Crisp wiff of air And Clean, white sheets Strange, but oddly comforting

I adapt quickly
I gave All of my vulnerability away For you, to you Exposed the dirt of my soul Not understood. Kept on Waiting for hope, in despair.

Not understood.
Seated in a car with the windows slightly down my father was hidden behind a mask, you could hardly see his face we drove past the bright rapeseed fields and I smiled as the smell of cows gently carresed my skin like it always used to, spring evening Sweet despair was in the air came as quickly as the sun set down will fade away when the first rays hit but far away will still be felt like it always does, spring evening Years go by and my mind gets tired life did look different those 10 years back but my dads voice sounded the same as today, a warmth of the fireplace like I used to feel, spring evening Seems like a good time, to cease it make it a happy ending, peaceful sky could never feel this close to being a child, a child again like I never thought I could, spring evening

Spring Evening
I held my breath for a second, The clouds stoppedrunning as if there was a small hole in time, Just for me to rest my mind, Just for Me to stop The pulse, Just for Me to feel alive The grass turned greener and Prettier, so much prettier Like that lawn where she lives , with her dog running around in circles and when I was holding my breath, I saw it all Like it was an ending of a movie Those exhilarating several minutes Where You can’t even blink Yet I did, close my eyes And when I opened them I saw The sky , it’s depth and width With the clouds rushing somewhere again

I held my breath for a second, The clouds stopped running as if there was a small hole in time, Just for me to rest my mind, Just for Me to stop The pulse, Just for Me to feel alive

Out of breath
It struck me like lightning Dangerously hard and out of nowhere As though I felt it in the air Yet didn't want to realise how I'm burning inside and out Yes, you set me on fire Made my ice cap melt so fast I'm drowning How is it possible that with one stare I'm in flames and no fire extinguisher shall help me? And so here I stand a tree burning from the inside out of love from you
