How can I or my body crave
you or your attention so very grave
When I have not even said more
than the simplest greetings while your

skin has not even met mine in ways
I would imagine. It is not you
who is my most desire, it is only
the image my mind prepares

But if it truly were you in person
that would travel further than
my mind could be, far beyond all

I ever could imagine, my only fear
is that the distance between us is even
greater than the distance I could run.
Do I believe in love at first sight? Instincts carry me to my most foolish hour, where I try to do so much for someone I don't know. I do wish to know you, I'm certain we will meet. Save yourself for me for I have already done the same for you.

(I have different versions in my notebook, but this one seems ok)

I can imagine how my dad must've felt
everytime I asked a question during
one of those films we watched together,
as a family. I was too young to concentrate.
In fact I still can't concentrate on movies.
I'm writing this while watching one.
Even when I don't concentrate, I have
noticed the important things. I'd prove
to you that I am different, but I can't.
I guess that makes me just another living soul
Determined by his actions, past and present.
If not his actions it's his looks or hobbies that are judged
Still this universe is closer to utopia any universe will ever be.

I could have been an actor
with intentions to hit everyone
by storm, then I would have been
forced to be healthy and fit

for I lack discipline to be like
that on my own.

But then what is my main factor?
Would I be struggling with myself
Who would I be if I had so many roles to play
I guess in theory I'd be a pretty good one
but when it comes to dealing with being
surrounded like a little boy in a room
full of mousquitoes. The tension I could never bare

I could have been so much
for I lack discipline to do such
on my own
And whilst they are talking about the weather I am here breaking down on the inside.
Such big days for some are such small ones for others.
The meaning you force upon a moment should not be forced.
To say I could have been so much until today.

Isn't it so that love was in it's prime
25 years ago. When you met someone
it was different, better, more special.
I can't stop thinking about when I play
a game, I feel the need to have done
every single thing, to have seen every
single ending. Life is nothing like that,
no redo's, sidepaths or bossfights.
Well, maybe some bossfights.

Impressive, how timing can ruin all.
Such a short moment in time, enough
to make everything dear to you fall.
Without control I buy, eat, yell and

hurt, most of all, hurt, people I do
not wish to hurt. I am not myself
It is not my fault, I just can't explain
Believe me when I say: 'I'm sorry.'.
They never believe me...

The pursuit of ignorance, bliss
and happiness. Perfection found
in a smile or in a tear, that is,
only to be seen, without a sound.

The view is all it takes, whatever
it takes to get that view, that
specific feeling, carefree thoughts,
an empty head. I guess I'll never

be not awake at night in bed,
with a mind that's everything but flat,
pained a little more with every tread,
and deeply vague, tied with knots.

As long as you keep craving desperately
your life will never make you run breathlessly
The running part, supposed to be a good thing, like running away after doing something crazy.

Every time I think about that guy,
when I see him, acting like he is
all that.

Every time I lose a game I was
never meant to win. Even more
when my opponent is that guy.

Everytime I mess up just once
more

This time
tomorrow,
I'll be drinking to that
I like how the words kinda form a beer glass
