Saw an old "friend" today
It's been a few years...
I think we fought in the past
maybe he hit me and I hit back
I can't remember the cause of the fight
a short chat about where we at
And what we might
Different paths and different lives
What an agony it is to grow
Are the memories real or were they just a show?
What about the time, the laughs and cries?
What is this familiarity in seeing someone from the past?
Why did we talk like best friends?
My heart aches for a time past
Of being young full of friendships and talks
Do they exist somewhere other than my mind?
Does he remember all that I have in my heart?
Such an agony to grow, to forget and remember
I gave him a big tip
And said to memories; I surrender.
Stranded in an empty desert
alone, no shelter or home
nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
along you came, a cloud heavy with rain.
and rain you did.
hopeful, I received your drops
but what was supposed to be salvation
turned to storm
cold and wet I lost a home.
you shaded me but clouds are not meant to stay
so we lost the way
you shower me with rain and then storm
blocking the sun
and In the end you realize
that no matter how much you love the rain,
in the end you always crave the Sun.
So easy and flowing like everlasting seas.
It's comfortable, sweet and calm
It's a strong yet delicate arm.
I'm the boat, the wind and the free bird
Riding the breeze and waves.
I'm in a tranquil state. Arm behind the head.
I'm dozing off while the cloud carries me.
I know no fear. You are the sun.
I bathe in you, while you gently hold me.
I reach for you, and I find all that I ever wanted.
So, I'll keep surfing on your waves.
Hoping that the sun will never leave me.
Bring me that “perfect” woman
The full, the perfect, the all
The one that fulfills fantasies,
The gate where men fall
who makes dreams come true
who makes gold out of blue
I'll still go, bolt, run home... to you.
Blonde, so nice and sweet
Came like a comet swept me off my feet
What do you like? What do you eat?
Do you love the cold or fancy the heat?
Can I go with you? Can I be what you need?
Do you fight for love? hold on to what you believe?
Do you fly planes? Or write poetry, perhaps prose?
Do you care for someone, do you have a muse?
How is your hair fixed in place? Does it spark at night?
Do you call for peace or advocate the fight?
Can you see me, do you know that I’m there?
Will I have the courage? Will it stop the cries?
Is it only me or do you thank everyone three times?
And my mind sometimes wanders
Other thoughts storm in, and I get lost
I'm fine and I don't need you the most
And I got over you and paid the cost
But when the fog disappears
It is sunny and my mind clears
There you are there I find you
The sole inhabitant of this wonderland
Like you are a Queen, and you rule the land
I lay you down in a coffin
But I could never bury you
And so, you linger in my mind
And my heart of hearts too
And when nothing else is there
There I find you.
And once you step on the moon
How could you ever settle for mere stars?
Once you learn a secret language
How could you ever unlearn it back?
How can you forget your vocabulary?
How can you leave souls?
I can burn all the photos and clothes
But what fire could burn words?
