Norwegian "Poetry is what happens when nothing else can" - Charles Bukowski
Last year, was too much waiting at dull bus stops on rainy sunday afternoons. And little rambling in the sun. Expectations too high and moments in vain. This year, there will be no pointless promises of ever red roses in winter snow. And no shy water in these eyes. Remember that these castles belong in the air.

This Year
It’s not that I don’t believe your words. They linger inside, and cling on to my heart. But in the end, my voice speaks a little louder, a little stronger, a little wider. Your words bring, sparkle and shine. They always find their way through. But in the end, they’re just too black, too white, too narrow.

Your Words
One day, you will be gone. We’ll stumble upon each other on the street. But I won’t know you, and you won’t know me. Maybe I’ll give you a nod, and perhaps you’ll say hello. As we walk on by, neither of us will look back. ‘Cause all will be gone. When she asks you who I am, you’ll say: «oh, just someone I once knew» Holding her hand a little tighter. Just like that, we will be gone. All the fragments of everything that used to be alive, will be washed away, like patterns in sand.  And it will all be gone.

All Will Be Gone
I’d like to see the world, from your point of view. Crawl inside your mind, when mine is blue. Because yours is always pink, like the blossoms on the cherry tree in spring. It’s orange, a hint of gold, like when the morning breaks. It’s white; clear and pure, like the first snow to fall. It’s the banner that paints the sky after heavy rain. So why don’t you let me into your mind tonight? I’m sure you will bring my thoughts some light.

From Your Point of View
If only, you could bring back that spark in your eyes. They rarely smile at me, these days. You let, the world pass you by, while walking in circles. Your path turned dark, long ago. If only, you could lay down and rest your weary head. Your thoughts are troubled these days. You say, there is no anchor to hold you, down. But I caught a glimpse of it, last night. If only, I could reach you from where you are tonight. ‘Cause your eyes rarely smile these days.

Your Eyes Rarely Smile
At times, I want to walk in your steps, and know everything you know, while, breathing in the soothing air you create. But mostly, I want to go my own way, and trust what you won't accept, while, breathing in air that stings you like venom. Then again, It might do me well, to sometimes open up my closed door, I guess, your age hides secrets I would like to know.

At Times
Now darling, please, Won't you bury your armor, and let your shield down. Your walls are to high, for me to climb. Like a wave, crush it, what poisons your mind. Now darling, please, Let go of your worries, they can only bring you harm. Your shadows are too dark, for me to see. Your mask, hide it, and show me those scars. Now darling, please, Let me take you home, to the place only you and I know. Your heart is too heavy, for me to know. My hand, take it, and I'll lead you through.

Now Darling, Please
As I walked out an evening grey, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to look and there she was; Her touch warm and soft, yet steady. This face famliar to me was; A pair of eyes I used to know. Blue and glowing like mine did before, Gazing into my shivering core. Her hand touched my cheeck so cold; *Before dawn the night is dark, Light will shine and birds shall sing, If faith is allowed within this soul*. So I was alone once more, On a crooked path, going nowhere. And though I thought about her words, God left this one long ago.

As I Walked Out An Evening Grey
If you wake tomorrow And I am gone, Then know that I Will be in some safer place, And won't not return No more. If you wake tomorrow But light is dim, You will me not behold For my silhouette is just a veil, Flowing in the wind, Evermore. If you wake tomorrow A little colder, And my shadow is The only fragment left of me, I have your dreams Restored. If you wake tomorrow To a silence, Leaving you trembling The voice you hear is not me, But a sigh deploring in Your core.

If You Wake Tomorrow
How delighted I would feel, To be the ocean wave singing softly. Rolling towards a haven safe, Embracing every shore so gently. How released I would feel, To be the eagle on the morning sky. Carried by the wind beneath my wings, Gliding away without a sigh. How thrilled I would feel, To be the sun breaking through the dark. Swaying upon the surface blue, Leaving gold with every spark. But I am caught in silence, And I cannot my wings perceive. As glowing coal dying my beams they fade, Yet my whispers will retrieve.
