I would do anything
to catch a glimpse.

I hope that I get
to keep trying for
the rest of my life,

to make you smile.

the sun beats on my shoulders.
the autumn breeze ruffles my hair.
i walk happily.
the path is laid clearly.
the destination is near.

i near your location.
the house is in front of me.
the siding and roofing is deteriorating.
i knock on the weakened door.
the door blows down.

the house is too worn down.
i barely recognize it.
the color is different.
the memories are gone.
i am without a childhood home.
All I am a memory drawn in an old picture
I sit there in the yard as I did a year before
everything's different and still the same

The exact same walls I painted back then
with the same paintings of stars and dreams
there where I felt the burden of the future

But then what is a future without colours?
Imagine a world between Monet's water lilies
and the soothing sounds of a piano

There where I sat with a long lost friend
gazing stars that now I can name
and there we talked about art and love

I think about those photographs too much
as time is forever frozen and minds shine
Should I abandon my crown now?

When I'm lonely I dive in books and memories
embroidered with Marc Chagall's dreamy mixtures
and sometimes I cry too much, but it's okay I know

I'll keep them inside the compass of my heart
I'll never be alone till I can still remember
all of what I learnt between lyrics and unsaid words

Some day far away from today we will meet
in some street forgotten or around trees
I hope maybe I'll will still write and dream

Put my faith in a bottle,
                                        and watched it *drain.
watched my faith disappear similar to the whiskey in my bottle.

You are my light

that keeps me going all night

when demons haunt

they disappear

when im near you

who would have known

you would make me feel

human  again
