I Just
Zoomed The **** Out
And Things
Got Simple
#today
Mette Kirkegaard Jun 2014
Maybe tomorrow we can talk
But for tonight, just leave me alone
Let me just go for that walk
Right now I need to be on my own

I know things have been hard for us
Both for me and for you
And I know, tomorrow will come
And you will tell me the truth

We used to spend hours here
Breathing side by side
And now the only thing I want
Is to get you out of my sight

Is this what they warned me about
All those years ago
How someone you could have loved
Sometimes find somebody else to hold

I don't think forgiveness is in the cards
So I am leaving this scar open
And I hope that when I tell you
You will remember, my heart is broken

Tonight while you're out with your friends
I will silently be packing my things
Living before the morning comes

- Because, *I refuse to be one of your regrets
Mette Kirkegaard Jun 2014
You are the most beautiful piece of breathing art

I have ever encountered

And before I met you, something not quite touchable

Was in a way always missing

The way you unexpectedly came crashing into my life

Barefoot and eyes wide open

Holding something stronger than love in your little hands

Kind of made me believe in fairytales again

And baby, just like that

- Loving you made sense

Will you wrap your arms around me
Silently press your body towards my back
Clutching my chest to keep it from exploding
Give me the strength I, myself, lack

Lay your head on the back of my neck
Whisper "It's gonna be okay" into my ear
Pull me in a little bit tighter, now
Let me feel you're still here

Help me weather the coming storm
Let me rest in these arms for a while
Before the thunder comes rushing in
And my tears, like the tide, will rise

The notion shows, as rain on my skin
As uncontrollable screaming
As a black out within
A pain with no meaning

I promise it will soon be over baby
I just need a little time
Getting my self together again
You promised never to leave me

You said "Baby, you and I"
Mette Kirkegaard Apr 2014
I hang on to this old, broken window sill
Concious of hanging on, just a little bit too tight
With the feeling it only will leave my hands bleeding?
Yet I can't let go, solely out of fright
Have people once again lied, or will I see a light?

Maybe I should have told you off
Better sooner than later - or so they say
I just feel like finally I've had enough
I don't want to go on like this

- Living like a regretful hater

Life should be beautiful, I've been told
The most precious thing to have
But I just don't feel like hanging on
It's no more complicated than that

I have fought with a couragous heart
For what feels like so many centuries now
Never giving it as much as a second thought
Just raging on and waiting for it to play out.

Lately I have had a reason to believe
This problem will never be desolved
You don't have the slightest interest in me
Or what I have to live with

I could have screamed as much as I cried
But I don't want to be of any bother
Yet it would only take one good look at my face
And you would know what I never told you

Kicking and hitting, biting and scratching
Is a fate I would much rather like
Because one thing I will never find by your side
Is a helpful hand and a sound advice
For the journey to find peace of mind.

Let us run into the forest
Let us just get lost for a while
Let us play with the mind of a poet
So pure, adventurous and wild

Let us watch the flowers grow
As they twirl around the trees
Let us bathe in the warm sunlight
And just listen to the sweet humming of the bees

Let me take you away, baby
To a very secret place
I promise it won't last forever
I would just like to use a day

- To show you something better

Let us fall into the flowerbed
In the bright open meadow
Right besides where the stream floats

A place;
Where I have seen people come to fall in love
And then watched new lovers leave
It is an amazing sight, like you won't even believe

I will look after you here
When the sky starts to darken
And the evening wind starts to flare
Later I will show you a love of mine

Which ignited my soul and left some scars
Only because all this beauty, usually happens
In the learning process of;

*The art of watching stars

— The End —
