Such a selfish thought
Being attached to the past
when it is understood
moments are not meant to last.
Change is braided with time,
Are we supposed to ignore that?

The simple act of looking
Will cause something to be
So I control my gaze
In a contemporary maze
Of love and poetry!
Conquer now, little by little,
work hard and harder, just don't become brittle,
hard work devoid of true rest, will surely derail your quest,
you aren't the first or the last, to go through hardships,
remember the past,
many before you have come and gone,
so what makes you think,
that you are the one?

It doesn't matter,
do your very best,
so you'll be able to end,
without regret in your chest,
that you didn't try, or were afraid to act,
we are all meant to die, and that's a proven fact,
no, you might not get rich, or have stadiums packed,
but your hearth will be right, you were brave in the fight.
The true "be strong" poem

in this empty field
once stood an empty house
in this empty house
an empty family
in this family
once stood a full child
until this family
emptied this child out

in this empty child
once stood a human being
behind this empty smile
emptied of their needs
in this empty house
in this empty family
where this child found out
on what empty feeds

you nestling in my heart, insatiable thief, childish sigh,

you make me drunk with your lusts that suspend the moment,

you write, … write, … you listen, - the gramophone sings,

under the waltz of roses, I laugh, - I dance - I float - I fly like a bee

I gather you from thorns, from flowers, in the sea breeze I caress you,

I  absorb the honey of your thoughts, I embrace you, I embrace you

I embrace you I embrace you I embrace you… windy breeze,

we float, in the unknown light we die we die

we die, … we die dancing in live poetry, untamed light

you nestling in my heart, and then you make me cry.

How much it feels better to be alone!
Passing a lonely life is very hard!
Make me colorful again
with your happiness and love.
Darling, please!
Touch my broken heart
with your angel eyes.

Sweetheart, come back to me
and be here right next to me!
Wipe my tears with your smile
and love me moreover
Darling, please!
Feel my broken heart
with your lovely eyes.

All of your memories
smile at me with the rising sun.
I am a silent poet
who just thinks about you!
Darling, please!
Fill my empty heart
with your heavenly eyes.

Sweetie, forget your pride
and be my bride,
If you go far away
then I feel you more all around me.
Darling, please!
Look at my burning heart,
there you'll find passion in your eyes!
