My world won't open.
Suffocated by my past.
Feel it closing in.
I think about death.
And when I take my last breath.
Will someone be there.
Or will I die all alone.
Sitting in my easy chair.
In that book
which is
My memory . . .
On the first page
That is the chapter when
I first met you
Appear the words . . .
Here begins a new life
My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
      Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.
Because you love me.
You have made me want to be,
a better person.
It's a turning point.
When you can smile through the tears.
Learn to love yourself.
A friend has your back.
You can tell them anything.
They love all your flaws.
it was dark and tender
my dad next to me
I was five
so free
at the driveway
we be

at some point
of the night
we looked upon the sky

I don't know why

we looked at the north
I saw a star so bright
with the colour of light

I looked him in the eyes
and said
“that's…grandpa”
flying so high

he said “no”

that's the northern star
it will always be
the brightest of them all
it's there when you seek
a guide to peek

when you've traveled so far
where no one can fish
when you wonder
‘Is this… ?’
or
‘What if…?’’
remember the star
that's it
An evening in the driveway of our house with my father...

I can't remember many of my memories...
I used to remember all the bad things, now I've forgotten them too, but I still remember this one.
When does life begin?
The answer lies in God's hands.
Angels will weigh in.
