Said the sea to the shore “you don’t love me anymore
All the good times seem like long forgotten chores
While sunshine ***** my waters making rain
I’ll visit other shores where I have lain
Make trees and grass and flowers grow again
Make harmony with clouds the sky I lend
Yet your sandy walk I will forever tend
Though you forget it’s time itself I bend”

Said the shore to the sea “you truly take me wrong
We will touch throughout eternity in song
Though moonlight is the mate for which I long
We’ll touch your tides like members of your tong
Make swirling currents beautiful and strong
For time is but the mask where we belong”

Said the sea to the shore “take comfort in my lust
For I turn even iron and steel to rust
Like the oceans of night’s sky I will remain
To touch your soul with yet a new refrain
That we may yet be lovers once again”

The chains have now been broken
From this place of no return
Your voice still echoes to this day
In the corridoors of our minds ,
Destiny now stands in wait
You took away our joy
But now the tide has turned
from your cold world now outside.
Your words they have faded
Along with your demands
Now you have gone the pain will heal ,
Those grusome cells they  are open
We will leave those days behind
You have no hold of  the fears
You created deep inside ,
Your doors have closed for the last time
Freedom is there and we move on
Far away from your prison bars.
That feeling of being set free from oppression
In its many forms .
Come join us in the garden
Your army days are done
Sit down and take it easy
Enjoy soak up the sun.

Now you need no longer worry
You will never be going back
Relax no need to hurry
Just forget about the past.

You say it's hard to carry on
Leaving the horrors of war behind
You often have those nightmares
From behind the enemy line.

So look now toward the future
The poserbilitys they are vast
There is that new horizon
Even though it's hard to grasp.

Come join us in the garden
Leave those fearful days behind
Look at all the lovely flowers
Representing peaceful times.

Look at this gardens beaughty
The war just had to end
Who knows what lies ahead of you
Your enemy could become your friend.
From the days of war come the time of peace
After the second world war came that new horizon
Never the less wars still continue.I had a friend who suffered PSTD.
To me that says humans are not designed for war.

There was a vacancy in my heart
The former occupant had long gone
You swept away the dust of years and made it over in soft pastels
Though your stay was brief, your essence lingers
Like the scent of roses left on the windowsill
Yet clinging to life in the fading glow of summer

There are two people
who I love the most
Fire and Water
this is how they are going to be called.
They are so similar
in many different ways
Both stubborn, powerful and strong
They do not like to be wrong.
They bring life,
and joy,
to every event we attend
Fire with its stormy energy,
Water with a smile which never ends.
They taught me the difference
between good and bad
The things that matters,
things that I can never forget.
I loved the way it felt,
when it was just the three of us
I loved that it felt as the whole world could be ours.
They have been so close for such a long time,
connected with a never ending line.
If Fire thought something, Water spoke it out loud
If Water felt anything, Fire already knew what it was about.
I wanted to be like you, and I tried for so long
But it's useless, even now that I've managed to do so.
Useless because you left,
you decided to take different paths
I got distracted for a second,
I didn't think it would have been enough.
It feels as you have just reached
two opposite sides of the road
And you both think it is too late to go home.
Now I have to stay still, in silent
As your fights break my heart
I have to be quiet, while my life falls apart.
I thouhgt I could do something,
I thought I knew how to act
but right now,
all I have left,
is a huge panic attack.
