I hope that we will have loved so much,
or at least loved just enough,
to make sure that

When war comes,
all our kisses will linger,
all our hugs unite us,
all the dancing and
all the music continue,
while freedom is on its way

I hope we will have visited many places,
learning the true meaning of home,
to make sure that

When war comes,
all our open doors will heal,
all the wounds will fade with
every shared meal, and
all our goodbyes turn into
’I wish you could stay’

I wish that we will have cared a lot
about those who cared for us,
making sure that

By the time war comes,

we will all know that we belong

For just a moment
a sigh of relief
falling asleep

I knew you'd leave

Soon waking up
in a place where
I can’t breathe

I can't breathe.

Remind me
why sharing
our pain was
too toxic
When hurting
without you
is lethal

Just wondering
what kind of adventure hides
in those brown glowing eyes

A whole different world
that could be anything but mine
Past, present and emerging
from his ear-to-ear smile

Now he's somewhere in the skies
and I'm somehow falling deep

If this was in the dreaming
could we ever meet?
His gaze just swept away
the stolen lands beneath my feet

Remember those nights when
we got drunk from that green liquid
and went to your place E.T.-style
and the sky was so big
the moon was so bright
you made me herbal tea with mint
and had that shark bite on your back
I just don't want to forget that

Lad nu blot dit øje sig lukke
Ingensinde må du lade dig såre
Da som han ej gjorde sig dig fortjent
Thi han fortjener ej heller din tåre
Helene Josephine Nov 2015
I'm lost
when his hands are out of reach
and all is
inaccessible now he leaves

I've lost
everything I imagined us to be
and all is
inaccessible in my dreams

He's gone
and still I reach for something
that's just as
inaccessible as it seems
