I love and love not: Lord, it breaks my heart
  To love and not to love.
Thou veiled within Thy glory, gone apart
  Into Thy shrine, which is above,
Dost Thou not love me, Lord, or care
  For this mine ill?--
I love thee here or there,
  I will accept thy broken heart, lie still.

Lord, it was well with me in time gone by
  That cometh not again,
When I was fresh and cheerful, who but I?
  I fresh, I cheerful: worn with pain
Now, out of sight and out of heart;
  O Lord, how long?--
I watch thee as thou art,
  I will accept thy fainting heart, be strong.

"Lie still," "be strong," to-day; but, Lord, to-morrow,
  What of to-morrow, Lord?
Shall there be rest from toil, be truce from sorrow,
  Be living green upon the sward
Now but a barren grave to me,
  Be joy for sorrow?--
Did I not die for thee?
  Do I not live for thee? leave Me to-morrow.

They think that it's right

To ****** day and night

And still be forgiven for their sins

It's time they met their lord

'Greet the longest sharpest sword

At the place where eternity begins

Only the night's awake
To the sound of my piano
Ringing in empty streets
Reaching far away
Touching the moon
And bouncing back to you
You arrive
at home
alone
one more
time

Your company
is just
the taste
of alcohol
and cigarrets

There is
nothing more
close by
besides
you
and your
solitude

The bed
feels empty
without
a body
a person
someone

If you
are reading
those words
know that
still remain
a little bit
of myself

but all
of this
seems to be
a goodbye
a farewell to
the world

and all
these words
can't fill
the emptiness
of this
bed
Sorry about the grammar mistakes. It was originally in portuguese and i've try to translate to english.

Lorraine day
If I should go
Before I've lived
For what reason
Have I been
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I should go
Before I see
All I should have seen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If love was never given
To all of those I met
What was the point
Of being here
~~~~~~~~~~~
To look back
With much regret .......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Many wasted opportunities
To share and spend my time
With those who should have mattered
Who I now must leave behind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I should go tomorrow
This night
Or today
Have I told you each and every one
The words I'd like to say
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~.
Like the flash of a captured photograph
Instantly
Makes us blind
Reflecting
Our fleeting existence
We have
Nothing....

Only


TIME .................
