if you keep scratching it
it won't go away
instead of disappearing
it will mark you
forever remain
a reminder

just like the cicatrice
on your ankle

A beautiful boy,
with eyes like emeralds,
and heart full of sadness
deep enough to break boulders.
I wanted to heal his scars,
but I suppose
I should worry about my own first,
because Jameson bottles,
are not the best medication
but god it tastes so fine
and I wanted you to kiss me,
the way I kissed you,
but we don't always get what we want
*no matter how bad I want it
Dear Charlotte,

Whenever there was a storm
you had power over sea
you comforted the water
just like you comforted me

I saw you as my guardian angel
always being around
and so you were the shining light
always picking me up from the ground

Now there's something I need you to know,
I've always loved you a lot
and also I want you to know
that you're the one I never forgot

I always knew you liked me,
in a special kind of way
by the sweet concering love
I saw in your eyes every day

And now you have a home
in a special part of my heart
and I guess that's why I miss you
now that I know, that we'll be forever apart.

This poem might me my most personal one ever. Charlotte was my beloved (and favourite) class teacher. She was a special and kind woman with a strong love in her heart. She had the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen and she really loved our class. And we really loved her. We had a special kind of connection I can't explain, but I'm greatful that it happened. She really is the best thing that has happened to me. And last but not least, she always understood me. Always. :-*
I don't find peace in the stars anymore
maybe it's because I'm not lonely
maybe it's because I'm free
or maybe it's just because
I'm no longer in love
with thee.

(l.p)
When I was in love I always found peace of mind in the stars. Somehow I always thought of you when the stars appeared on the night sky. Quite odd, right? 'cause whenever I knew you were far away you always seemed so near when I stared at the starry sky for hours and hours.

some days
it only takes
a look in the mirror
to fall apart
in ten thousand

i do not have the courage
to face the monsters
in my head
(because i am afraid
that they won't be there)

so i lit a lamp
and keep looking
under my bed

my heart
told me to
let
it
go
when
my tears
yelled
at me

you know
your time is up
when
poems
stop reminding you
of the person
you thought
you could not live
without

my heart
is just as
e m p t y
as the empty cup of coffee
right in front of me
and
you
don't even
seem to notice

not
one
bit
