'Romance is an oasis if you keep it ours'

But soon you were waging wars

I guess it died like the flowers I got you

Red roses and violets blue

We could have been more

If you’d just keep your word

You ran for the hills

But I was frozen in the graveyard

Just like when I saw you in the backyard

Above us full moon

And the warm chilling air of June

It rained down on us

When it was all over

You weren't there, just cold night air

We died like the roses, too beautiful but too young

Like a melody in the night left unsung

And all the ‘I love yous’ on the tip of my tongue

I  followed my incandescent scars

You went on the path of stars

At the other end of the world

Without another spoken word

I keep hearing your voice

In the rustling of the trees

Every  trace of you gone, I’m not at ease

If I had a choice

I’d go back before I met you

To save my heart from breaking in two

I’m running through the streets

I left part of me  in those sheets

I run home to you

Crashing like waves on the ocean’s shore

This city can’t contain me anymore

When they told me it’s not normal

How she made me feel this abnormal

How she played me like a fool

Just because I was too cool

And now I’m haunted by the memory of her

I never asked for this, why me?

Haunted by things I cannot see

My heart’s beating fast

My bones remember the past

Every inch of my body aches

The world is filled with sadness and pain

And it won't go away at the first rain

United, never divided, we can make it out alive

Maybe even have the time of our life

It won’t be easy, it won’t be a fairytale

Advancing through the narrow, twisted trail

The light at the end of the tunnel is farther and farther

Holding back tears becomes harder

If the path gets steeper

Take my hand, together we’ll dive deeper

The question to ask, an answer that never comes

How can the world be a better place

If we live as recluses, everyone with their space?  

Take my hand, together we’ll understand

We’ll venture into an unknown land

Discover the secret hidden from man

Look at your life from the outside
Try to change something inside
Would you want to live your life this way
Eternally over and over again day after day?
Nothing changed, nothing less, nothing more
Everything as it was before
It should give you something to ponder about
Do you love your life or want out?

Middle of the night, I hear myself scream

I pray it was all a fever dream

She’s standing in the corner, eyes staring at me

Her face hidden in the shadows for me to never see

Her glare burns through the pitch black of the room  

Everything around me is engulfed in heavy fume

Shadows dancing on the wall

Is it her or just the city’s lights?

Toying with me in the dead of night

I’m startled even by a phone call

‘You are what you did’

She said from the dark in which she hid

Her voice pierces new holes in my heart

The first rays of sun creeping in through the blinds

Pull me far away from her into their warm embrace

And finally there's nothing left of her but a blank space

Like a butterfly sporadically flapping its wings

My heart beats without any strings

I can’t control it but it controls me and everything counterfeit

Like a ship signaling for help to get to the docks

A faint signal, three dots, three dashes, three dots

My heart speaks a language I used to know
