Dead roses
I never threw them out
let them stay like this
then it'll be like our love
dead and left behind

Got a heart so big you can fit and take care of many of the ones you love. But you need to clean your heart once in a while, for all the people that are in there and for those who left. Take a look inside. Don’t be fooled, you might find that someone is in your heart that is not supposed to be there anymore, and it’s okay if it’s hard for you to let them go, they might not have a place to go. But sweetheart they cannot overstay their welcome. It's your heart, not theirs, once they were a part of you, but not anymore.

You are a gift to the world
but most importantly
to yourself
when you wake up
open your eyes
get up and stand
on your bare feet
you always land safely
use your hands
and take the world by storm
just do it
smile about being
amazing at being you
no one can compare to
the way you are nailing it

If I gave you my heart
are you a hearteater
or a heartprotecter?

If I gave you all of me
are you a destroyer
or a builder?

If I gave you the world
are you the devil himself
or an angel?

the rain is
pouring down
outside
in here we are
safe and warm
you're sleeping
I'm getting closer
to you so you
won't freeze
holding you
in my arms
you take a deep
breath and as I
study your
angel face
I can't help
but feel home

The way the sunlight hits
you in the morning
waking you up
energised
can’t help but smile
that’s you
when you walk towards me
looking at me
to prepare me for what happens next
let’s melt together, embrace
taste the rainbow from your lips
and let’s stay here
as the universe continues 
as the people around us
keep living
put our time stopped
for this moment

Where do you go
when home
isn't home anymore?

where do you go
when he
isn't yours anymore?

where do you go
when she
won’t be your friend anymore?

where do you go
when they
don't believe in you anymore?

where do you go
when everything
seems lost?

Shot or hung was my possibilities 
I chose to get shot
in the end the wound will heal
if only it wouldn't take this long

that morning coffee
on the balcony
tastes so much better
when you sit next to me

that afternoon tea
in the living room
taste so much sweeter
when I'm in your arms

that evening cocktail
in the kitchen
tastes so much stronger
when it's followed by your kisses

I thought I could
trick time
by kissing you
but the moment passed
and time moved on
whether I liked it or not
and now
you're gone

every time
someone
comes around
I fall
even when
I know
it will never
work out

every time
someone
wants me
it's too difficult
there's always
a distance
between us
yet I fall

every time
we sit here
time stops
even at night
as we lay down
it feels like
we are next to
each other
as we close
our eyes
that feeling
goes away
because I
see you
next to me

I felt it in the air
this cold, grey weather
it was the same as last year
when I was happy
shook it off because
it made me tense
because now I can finally
smile without you

As i was laying there
shattered into pieces
trying to collect myself
failed too many times
I almost gave up
a ray of sunshine
came by
lit up the room
so I could finally see
where I should
begin

Your hands
holding my face
gently stroke
my cheeks
with your thumbs
making me
blush

Waking up slowly
in your arms
it's dark but
I sense your smile
gentle eyes
as you look at me
run your fingers
through my hair
no words
just movements
I lean in closer
taking a deep breath
before I kiss your chin
before you can’t
control yourself anymore
taking control
'kiss me' you said
no time to answer
before our lips met
I guess you’ve missed me
cause I’ve never had such a
passionate kiss before
I’m awake now

I want you out of this bed
you are gone
but I can still feel you
my mind says you are
still laying here
holding my hand
touching my lips
I want you out!

I want you out of this room
you are gone
but I can still hear you
I can still hear
you breathing
your sweet giggle
they way you hum
while holding me
to make me feel safe
I want you out!

I want you out of my head
the only place
you never left
you're with me everywhere
what you would say
how you would react
feeling your touch
playing with my mind
making sure that
I didn't leave you
I want you out!

I don't really fall in love anymore
I feel dead on the inside
it's been like this for some time
give it a try if you dare
but don't get angry with me
for not trying
I might just be too broken
to trust anyone again
cut me some slack
and if not
you probably
aren't the one for me

Just another pit stop
not your destination
you weren't here for long
but you made it seem that way

Just another pit stop
not your destination
you took what you needed
then left without looking back

I was just a pit stop
not your destination
took advantage
leaving your mark

Like a feather in the wind
let me follow you wherever you go

Like a dark cloud on a rainy day
let me shower you with my love

Like a beam of sunlight
let me brighten your day

Like a snowflake on your cheek
let me give you chills

All the memories
moments I’ve had
are all fading to black
exchanged for sadness
and slowly forgotten

I did something silly
like I always do
to see your reaction
you smiled confused
then hid your face
from blushing
you leaned in closer
and whispered
'please, never change'

I saw you smile today
Can i keep it? Please
I promise to keep it safe
Take good care of it
A smile so pure I melted
I don't even know
Why I'm smiling now

It was on a Monday afternoon
determined and scared to death
I didn’t want things to end
at least not like this
but you gave me no choice
I've never been happier
when I was with you
but i'm more than just an option
It’s over now, I left before you
sitting on my living room floor
silent, empty and alone
tears running down my face
what a relief but at the same time
I’ve never felt this lost
wanting to call just to hear
your voice
find comfort
but we are no more
I let you go now
go be with her

I wanted to stick with the others
but it was when I fell off
I learned how to fly

I wanted you to have me
to be there for you always
but you didn’t deserve me
at least that was was you said

Every night
I look up at the stars
remembering how it was
how awful I felt

Every night
I look up at the moon
remembering your sweet face
that was never really mine

Every night
I look up at the dark clouds
remembering all the tears I shed
how I was drowning in sorrow

Every night
I look up at the sky
remembering being consumed by your darkness
and how it almost killed me
