Maybe we feel empty because we left pieces of ourselves in everything we used to love, and maybe we feel sad because love is deceiving. Maybe we feel broken because the things that used to fix us are broken as well, and maybe we cry because there are so many questions left unanswered. Maybe we hurt because someone has to feel the pain. Maybe, just maybe.
Hope you like it.

Rare but Relevant
My words do not match the dreadful truth that suffocates the human being within me

Driving down a dark highway late at night
Running out of time, running from myself
All I can see before me is the moonlight
Slowly disappearing, fading out of sight

All I can do now is look back with regret
The story unravelled like I didn't expect
Trying to keep away, trying to forget
This loss is final, the future is set

Longing for the warmth of yesterday
Life played out in a better way
Carrying the weight on my shoulders
From now until forever
Hoping forever might yet hold a better day

So cold
So cold in your eyes
In your arms
Found myself in this state
Tears of joy
Tears of pain
Found myself gone
Vanished without a trace
Caught within your grasp

So lost
So lost in your eyes
In your arms
Feel like I've lost my way
Can't escape
Here to stay
Without all reason
Still stood here waiting
For a day that will never come

I watch you slowly walk away
Walking over the hills and out of sight
I know you don't need me anymore
Life must go on, I need to rebuild
Not a word was said
Only the sound of the wind
Blowing through the trees

I watch you slowly walk away
Walking over the hills out of sight
I know it won't be easy
Running through the forest, hot on my trail
I can't stop now, I can't give up
Feeling like I'm struggling on
Just to survive, to see another day

I watch you slowly walk away
Over the hills out of sight
I'll never see those eyes again
I'll never hear your laugh again
Until the hands of time turn
And there's nothing but a faded picture
Hanging on the wall above my bed

Everything about you has changed
your hair and your feet,
the way you walk, that day
when I had to hear you talk
the pain makes me bleed.

Oh dear ! how it used to be
the fresh smell of your beauty
the gentle grip of your wrists
tangled uncombed hair on your shoulder
your crisp smile filled with purity

Your presence now rakes up all those memories
               what once was divine serenity
                  has now become an eyesore
                   for how much ever you try
            the only thing you can never hide
                 are your big expressive eyes
   I can see myself in them, tattered and beaten
these will keep reminding me again and again
and such is to bear this pain, it will never change
Times change, humans change in their body and nature. But the only thing that remains constant is the eye, since birth eyes are the same and that is why they are able to tell the whole story.

that though Sorrow
may be one of the closest
forces to
a writer's soul,
it is still only second to another,

*and that is Love.
Don't you ever forget that :)

lord have mercy
on my free and easy ways

I'm going to go with the flow
where ever it takes me,
When I find the music inside
I'm gonna dance

lord have mercy
on my free and easy ways

You know my words
they sometimes sting
I never mean to do you any harm
when the music moves me
I'm going to sing

lord have mercy
on my free and easy ways

I know sometimes
I'm gonna get used
I'm going to make you happy
if I can
I get down on my knees
lord have mercy
on my free and easy ways

Sometimes a boy
he's gotta
be free
people are going to be
what they gotta be
I'm a lover
not a fighter

lord have mercy
on my free and easy ways.
Inspired by the band The Head and The Heart, the song: "Down in the Valley"
The line:
"Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways", 2010.

Sadness!
a long loving companion
Like a shadow....
when I left myself alone here
with a sorrow
sitting next to me

The blanket of clouds
put me to such deep sleep
and made me hear my dreams loud
I could see my sins go down the drain
No longer shall I weep
Even when this cover is gone
I refuse to wake up
for I love this silent song
purity flowing all around
lucidity spreading all the calm
the ocean's tender tide
loving me as I turn each side
I refuse to wake up
and end this sweet slumber
and die again a devil's death
